Explanation:
In the extra column, I included additional context about oxidoreductases from the UWorld explanation. While it's important to understand the type of reaction an enzyme catalyzes, it's equally crucial to track the flow of electrons during the reaction. I also listed the most common electron donors and acceptors involved. Although the image in the "extra" section illustrates this concept, I believe pairing it with descriptive wording can enhance understanding and application.

Reasoning:
The UWorld question asked:

Passage excerpt:
"......."

Question:
Which of the following molecules would best serve as the cofactor that reduces FM in the LOT6p mechanism described in the passage?

A. Ubiquinone
B. Acetyl-CoA
C. Mg²⁺
D. NADPH
