Solution

The correct option is A Acetyl CoA
Glycolysis breaks one molecule of glucose into two molecules of pyruvic acid in the cytoplasm. The pyruvic acid is decarboxylated to acetyl CoA. The acetyl CoA is metabolised in Krebs cycle. Thus, acetyl CoA forms the connecting link between glycolysis and Krebs cycle.
