Krebs Cycle Flashcards
1
Q
Acetyl CoA
A
A molecule produced from pyruvate which enters the Krebs cycle to produce ATP.
2
Q
Coenzyme A
A
A coenzyme used to change pyruvate into acetyl CoA which enters the Krebs cycle.
3
Q
FAD and FADH2
A
FAD is a molecule that picks up hydrogen atoms and becomes FADH2 which is then transferred to the electron transport chain to produce more ATP from the energy in electrons
4
Q
Krebs Cycle
A
The second stage of cellular respiration in which pyruvate from glucose is used to produce ATP, NADH, and FADH2.
5
Q
NAD+ and NADH
A
NAD+ is a molecule that picks up hydrogen atoms and becomes NADH which is then transferred to the electron transport chain to produce more ATP from the energy in electrons.
