Best Answer

A total of five 'loaded' acceptor molecules are formed, (four NADH and one FADH2) for each pyruvate molecule. Making a total of 10 'loaded' acceptor molecules because two pyruvate's are used.

Therefore the most abundant acceptor released in the Kreb cycle is NADH (4 of them) vs only one FADH2.

Oxygen is the final electron acceptor in the electron transfer chain and therefore needs to be present in the Kreb's cycle. Without oxygen only anaerobic repiration will occur.
