Module 2: Kreb Cycle Flashcards
1
Q
What is the Kreb cycle
A
A cycle that involves a series of redox reactions
2
Q
What are the electron carries involved in oxidative phosphorylation
A
NADH and FADH2
3
Q
What happens to NAD+ in the kreb cycle
A
it is oxidized into NADH
4
Q
How many cycles of the Kreb cycle are there from one round of glycolysis
A
2 cycles of the kreb cycle because there are 2 Acetyl-CoA
5
Q
What does each cycle of the Kreb cycle create (Net)
A
1 FADH molecule, 1 molecule of ATP, and 3 molecules of NADH (Double everything due to the 2 cycles)
6
Q
What happens after the Kreb cycle
A
The FADH and NADH molecules enter the matrix and are used in the electron transport chain
