When oxygen is not available to a cell, NADH formed during glycolysis:

1. does not undergo any change as there is no need for the cell to regenerate NAD+
2. passes electrons to the electron transport system
3. passes hydrogen atoms to pyruvic acid
4. passes electrons and hydrogen atoms to acetyl coA

Consider the given two statements:
Assertion (A): It is better to consider the respiratory pathway as an amphibolic pathway rather than only as a catabolic one.
Reason (R): Breaking down processes within the living organism is catabolism, and synthesis is anabolism.
 
1. Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) correctly explains (A)
2. Both (A) and (R) are True but (R) does not correctly explains (A)
3. (A) is True but (R) is False
4. (A) is False but (R) is True
