The graphic shows the citric acid cycle.
During the citric acid cycle, what happens to acetyl-CoA?
• It enters the citric acid cycle and gains carbon dioxide to form citric acid, and gains more carbon dioxide through redox reactions to form a 4-carbon molecule.
O it enters the citric acid cycle and associates with a 4-carbon molecule, forming citric acid, and then throug redox reactions regenerates the 4-carbon molecule.
• It enters glycolysis and associates with a 5-carbon molecule through redox reactions, forming another ace
CoA molecule.
It enters the citric acid cycle and associates with a 4-carbon molecule, forming a 5-carbon compound, and through oxidation reactions regenerates the 4-carbon molecule.
