Q

What happens in the krebs cycle

A

-acetylene coenzyme A (2c) reacts with (4c) molecule
- releasing coA
- producing a 6c molecule that enter the Krebs cycle
- 4c molecule is regenerated and
- Series of redox reactions produces
- ATP by substrate levels phosphorylation
- reduced FAD and NAD
- 2x co2 lost
