Which of the following describes the malate-aspartate shuttle system?
a.) Carries NADH from the cytoplasm directly into the mitochondria
b.) Generates 2.5 molecules of ATP in mitochondria per each NADH from glycolysis
c.) Moves NADH from the mitochondria to the cytoplasm
d.) Relies on malate dehydrogenase in the inner mitochondrial membrane
