No oxygen is used in TCA cycle. Oxygen comes into play in the electron transport chain.
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.
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.
Two molecules of NADH are generated after one cycle of the TCA (Krebs) cycle.
Kreb's cycle or 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.
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.

Glycolytic and TCA cycle
The kerb cycle is also known as the citric acid cycle or the TCA cycle.
Kreb's cycle or TCA cycle
While photosynthesis requires carbon dioxide and releases oxygen, cellular respiration requires oxygen and releases carbon dioxide. It is the released oxygen that is used by us and most other organisms for cellular respiration.
The TCA cycle for the most part.
Carbon 1 and Carbon 4 in glucose molecule are released as CO2 in the TCA cycle.
