Lack Of Hemoglobin At What Stage Of Cellular Respiration Would The Lack On Iron Cause The Greatest Problems?

At what stage of cellular respiration would the lack on iron cause the greatest problems? - lack of hemoglobin

Disgarding hemoglobin and red blood cells. Thank you!

Released in the glycolysis and the Krebs cycle, there are a number of electrons as the glucose molecule is broken. The cell is confronted with these electrons, they are stored somewhere in the cell, forming a substance called NADH by chemical reaction, NAD + + H + + 2e-NADH. The NADH is used to electrons on the electron transport chain, where more energy is derived from transport.

A large number of compounds that form the chain of transmission electron belonging to a particular group of chemicals known as cytochrome. The central structure of a cytochrome is a porphyrin ring of chlorophyll, but with iron in the middle (chlorophyll is magnesium). A porphyrin-iron in the middle is a heme group, and these are also in hemoglobin in the blood.
