even though the Krebs cycle produces only 2 ATP, it also produces NADH, FADH2, which are very useful in the electron transport chain.
Every NADH+H produces 3 ATP
Every FADH2 produces 2 ATP, which all add together to 38 ATP. The Krebs cycle is very important in the production of ATP!
The main function of the Krebs cycle is the complete oxidation of glucose to produce ATP. It is also referred to as the citric acid cycle.
Pyruvate is transported to the mitochondria to serve as a starting point for the Krebs cycle. Once in the mitochondria, pyruvate is converted into acetyl-CoA, which then enters the Krebs cycle to be oxidized for energy production.
No, the Krebs cycle is aerobic, meaning it requires oxygen to function.

The Krebs cycle occurs in the matrix of the mitochondrion.
