Question

Which of the following is correct about Kreb's cycle?

• A. ADP is converted to ATP
• B. Acetyl-CoA is converted to CO₂ and H₂O
• C. Glucose is converted in CO₂
• D. Pyruvic acid is converted to ATP

Answer 1

The correct option is B Acetyl-CoA is converted to CO₂ and H₂O

Kreb’s cycle, also known as tricarboxylic acid cycle is a process in which the glycolytic product - pyruvic acid is converted to CO₂ and H₂O. Pyruvic acid enters Kreb's cycle as acetyl-CoA. Kreb's cycle takes place in the mitochondria.
