Solution

The correct option is C succinate
The reactions which help in converting pyruvic acid to carbon dioxide and water in mitochondria are called the Krebs cycle. FADH2 is produced in Kreb's cycle during the conversion of succinic acid (succinate) to fumaric acid (fumarate) in the presence of enzyme succinate dehydrogenase.
So, the correct answer is option C.
