Solution

The correct option is B Citric acid isocitric acid oxalosuccinic acid
Krebs' cycle starts with the formation of citric acid which then converts to cis-aconitic acid and then to iso-citric acid in presence of aconitase . Iso-citric acid converts to oxalosuccinic acid in presence of isocitrate dehydrogenase.
So the answer is 'Citric acid isocitric acid oxalosuccinic acid'.
