What is another name for the Krebs cycle?
Tricarboxylic acid cycle, the citric acid cycle, and the Szent-Györgyi-Krebs cycle
What are the products and reactants for the first stage of respiration?
The first set of reactions of respiration is called glycolysis, however the first part of respiration that could be called a cyclical reaction is Krebs Cycle (or Citric acid cycle or Tricarboxylic acid cycle).
Where does the tricarboxylic acid cycle occur?
Within mitochondrial matrix.
Why is the Citric Acid cycle called a cycle?
Because it goes around and around as in a unicycle wheel.
Can fatty acids be converted to oxaloacetate?
Not directly. Fatty acid β-oxidation results in acetyl CoA, which is then entered to the Citric Acid cycle. The "last" step of the cycle is the formation of oxaloacetate from malate.
What is the citric acid cycle also known as?
Krebs cycle (aka citric acid cycle, aka tricarboxylic acid cycle)
How did the citric acid cycle get its name what is the origin of citric acid cycle?
The conguate base of citric acid - citrate - is an important intermediate in the cycle. This is where the name "Citric Acid Cycle" comes from. It is also known as the Tricarboxylic Acid Cycle - as it involves 3 carbon acids, or the Krebs Cycle after Hans Adolf Krebs - who developed the complexities of the cycle.
Are Krebs cycle and tricarboxylic acid interchangeable terms?
Yes. The Krebs cycle is also known as the tricarboxylic acid cycle (TCA) or the citric acid cycle.
An immediate consequence of a cellular deficiency of oxaloacetate is a slowing of what?
An immediate consequence of a cellular deficiency of oxaloacetate is the slowing of the Citric Acid Cycle. The citric acid cycle is also called the tricarboxylic acid cycle.
What is another name for the Krebs cycle?
Tricarboxylic acid cycle, the citric acid cycle, and the Szent-Györgyi-Krebs cycle
What cycle breaks down pyruvic acid into carbon dioxide and produces nadh fadh2 and atp?
The citric acid cycle a.k.a. the tricarboxylic acid cycle , the Krebs cycle, or the Szent-Györgyi-Krebs cycle
What is the chemical symbol for citrate?
Any salt of citric acid. Citrate is the first intermediate of the citric acid cycle and tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle. It also plays an important role in fatty acid synthesis which takes place in the cytoplasm.
Does photosynthesis have Kreb's cycle in it?
No. Krebs cycle (also called the citric acid cycle or the tricarboxylic acid cycle) is responsible for the final breakdown of food molecules to form carbon dioxide, water, and energy within the cells of all animals and higher plants and in most bacteria.
What are the products and reactants for the first stage of respiration?
The first set of reactions of respiration is called glycolysis, however the first part of respiration that could be called a cyclical reaction is Krebs Cycle (or Citric acid cycle or Tricarboxylic acid cycle).
Why is the citric acid cycle a cyclic pathway rather than a linear pathway?
The citric acid cycle is a cyclic pathway rather than a linear pathway because it is easier to remove electrons and produce CO2 from compounds with three or more carbon atoms that form a two-carbon compound such as acetyl CoA.
Where does the tricarboxylic acid cycle occur?
Within mitochondrial matrix.
Where can Amino acids enter the metabolic pathways?
My test says citric acid cycle, acetyl coA and pyruvate
