The Krebs cycle forms many products. Which option lists the correct products of the Krebs cycle after 1 molecule of glucose goes through it.
A. net 2 NADH, 2 ATP, 4 CO2, 2 FADH2
B. net 2 NAD+, 2 ATP, 4 CO2, 2 FADH
C. net 4 NADH, 4 ATP, 8 CO2, 4 FADH2
D. net 1 NADH, 1 ATP, 2 CO2, 1 FADH2

Respuesta :

Answer:

Its A

Net 2 NADH, 2 ATP, 4 CO2, 2 FADH2

The Krebs cycle forms 2 NADH, 2 ATP, 4 CO2 and 2 FADH2 after one molecule of glucose goes through it. So the correct option is A.

What is the Krebs cycle?

The Krebs cycle is also known as the TCA cycle (tricarboxylic acid) or the citric acid cycle. It is the main source of cellular energy and an important part of the entire process of aerobic respiration.

In this cycle, the available energy of Acetyl coenzyme A is utilized and converted to Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide (NADH). In glycolysis, glucose is utilized to form pyruvate. The pyruvate is oxidized to Acetyl coenzyme A and then it enters the TCA cycle.

The intermediates involved in the pathway also form intermediates for many other pathways to form porphyrins, amino acids, fatty acids etc. Thus, any disturbance in this cycle will not only disturb itself but many other pathways.

Therefore, the end products of the Krebs cycle are 2 NADH, 2 ATP, 4 CO2 and 2 FADH2. Hence the correct option is A.
