Question

Link between glycolysis, Krebs cycle and $\beta$-oxidation of fatty acid or carbohydrate and fat metabolism is

• A. Oxaloacetic acid
• B. Succinic acid
• C. Citric acid
• D. Acetyl CoA

Answer 1

The correct option is D Acetyl CoA

After glycolysis, the pyruvic acid is converted into acetyl CoA by a reaction which is known as the link reaction with links the glycolysis and Krebs cycle Fats are broken down by beta-oxidation and then they also form acetyl CoA which is directly entered into crab cycle.

So, the correct option is 'Acetyl CoA.'
