No it is oxidized to carbon di oxide
why pyruvic acid do not move as it is in krebs cycle
Pyruvic acid cycle does enter the Krebs cycle and is turned into acetyl coenzyme A.
fermentation
The end product of the breakdown of pyruvic acid in aerobic conditions is acetyl-CoA, which enters the citric acid cycle. In anaerobic conditions, pyruvate is reduced to lactate or fermented to produce ethanol.
Pyruvic acid is more reduced than lactic acid. This is because yruvic acid contains carboxylic acid and a ketone to oxaloacetate.
This is false. Pyruvic acid is converted to acetic acid prior to the krebs cycle.
FADH2 since pyruvic acid is needed to START the Krebs cycle
Pyruvic acid is first converted to acetyl-CoA before entering the Krebs cycle. Acetyl-CoA combines with oxaloacetate to form citric acid, which initiates the Krebs cycle. Throughout the cycle, acetyl-CoA is oxidized to produce energy in the form of ATP, NADH, and FADH2.
Pyruvic acid
Pyruvic acid
The pyruvic acid that is produced by glycolysis is used as the initial input for the Krebs Cycle (also called citric acid cycle). In the initial step of the Krebs Cycle, the pyruvic acid is converted to acetyl-CoA via pyruvate decarboxylation. This continues a series of chemical reactions leading to the production of 2 ATP molecules.
Glycolysis is the breakdown of glucose to give pyruvic acid and energy. Pyruvic acid is then used for different reactions, the most important one being Kreb's cycle.
