What else can I help you with?
There are six carbon in glucose molecule C-1 to C-6 Which carbon is released as CO2 in tca cycle?
Carbon 1 and Carbon 4 in glucose molecule are released as CO2 in the TCA cycle.
What compound is generated in the TCA cycle?
The compound generated in the TCA (tricarboxylic acid) cycle is citrate. This cycle is also known as the Krebs cycle or citric acid cycle. It is a series of chemical reactions that produce energy through the oxidation of acetyl-CoA derived from carbohydrates, fats, and proteins.
What are the two other names for Krebs cycle?
Citric Acid Cycle TCA Cycle (tricarboxcylic acid cycle).
TCA cycle is Amphibolic in nature-Why?
In aerobic organisms the TCA is amphibolic pathway, one that both srves in the catabolic and anabolic processes. besides its role in the oxidative catabolism of carbohydrates, fatty acids and amino acids, the cycle provides precursors for many biosynthetic pathways
Are Krebs cycle and tricarboxylic acid interchangeable terms?
Yes, Krebs cycle and tricarboxylic acid cycle are interchangeable terms used to describe the same metabolic pathway in the cell that generates energy through the oxidation of acetyl-CoA derived from carbohydrates, fats, and proteins. It is named after the scientist who discovered it, Sir Hans Krebs.
Where does TCA cycle occur in the cell?
TCA cycle occur in the mitochondria (the power house of the cell)
How many NADH's are generated after one cycle of the TCA?
Two molecules of NADH are generated after one cycle of the TCA (Krebs) cycle.
Is oxygen used in the TCA cycle?
No, oxygen is not directly used in the TCA (tricarboxylic acid) cycle. The TCA cycle, also known as the citric acid cycle, is a series of chemical reactions that occur in the mitochondria and is primarily involved in generating energy from carbohydrates, fats, and proteins. Oxygen is used in the electron transport chain, which is a separate process that follows the TCA cycle and is responsible for the final stages of cellular respiration.
Is the TCA cycle the same as Krebs Cycle?
Yes, the TCA (tricarboxylic acid) cycle is another name for the Krebs cycle or citric acid cycle. These terms are used interchangeably to describe the same metabolic pathway that occurs in the mitochondria of cells, producing ATP and carbon dioxide as part of aerobic respiration.
What is anaploretic?
It means "Filling up"... If we are talking about the TCA cycle, which I am assuming we are. A set of reactions, one of which is the glyoxylate cycle supports the TCA cycle with intermediates that are used in making other molecules, therefore filling in the intermediate that were used in other reactions. For example, Citrate is used to make Fatty Acids and Cholesterol. When citrate is pulled from the TCA cycle to make these molecules fewer citrate molecules will go through the TCA cycle making less succinate and there for less oxaloacetate. The glyoxylate cycle makes up for this deficit by making succinate, fumarate, and malate which will proceed to complete the TCA cycle.
What pathway is phosphofructokinase involved in?
Glycolytic and TCA cycle
What is the kerb cycle also called?
The kerb cycle is also known as the citric acid cycle or the TCA cycle.
What is the name for the cyclic reaction that occurs in aerobic respiration?
Kreb's cycle or TCA cycle
What are anabolic reaction in tca cycle?
Anabolic reactions in the TCA cycle involve the production of intermediates that can be used for the synthesis of molecules such as amino acids, fatty acids, and nucleotides. For example, oxaloacetate produced in the TCA cycle can be used for gluconeogenesis or for the synthesis of amino acids. These reactions require energy input and are generally biosynthetic in nature.
What is the source of energy produced by the mitochondria?
The TCA cycle for the most part.
There are six carbon in glucose molecule C-1 to C-6 Which carbon is released as CO2 in tca cycle?
Carbon 1 and Carbon 4 in glucose molecule are released as CO2 in the TCA cycle.
What products are generated from TCA cycle?
The products generated from the TCA cycle are ATP (energy), carbon dioxide, and reduced electron carriers NADH and FADH2, which are important in cellular respiration for generating more ATP.
