Acetyl CoA forms.
Acetyl CoA forms.
Pyruvate oxidation takes place in the mitochondrial matrix. Here, pyruvate is converted into acetyl-CoA by the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex, which is a critical step in aerobic respiration.
Pyruvate is converted into acetyl CoA in the mitochondrial matrix through a series of enzymatic reactions known as the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex. Acetyl CoA then enters the citric acid cycle to produce energy in the form of ATP through a series of oxidation-reduction reactions.
glucose is changed into pyruvate
Pyruvate enters the Krebs cycle via an intermediate called acetyl CoA.Pyruvate is formed in the cytoplasm as the end product of glycolysis. Pyruvate enters a mitochondrion, in the matrix of which it encounters the enzyme pyruvate dehydrogenase. This enzyme catalyzes the reaction of pyruvate with coenzyme A to form acetyl CoA. This reaction is sometimes called the link reaction, as it links glycolysis to the Krebs cycle (= citric acid cycle, or tricarboxylic acid cycle)."Pyruvate dehydrogenase" is in fact a huge complex (bigger than a ribosome) consisting of three enzymes and a number of other substances, including coenzymes. In the course of the reaction NAD+ is reduced to NADH. A molecule of CO2 is also produced. So this reaction involves a both an oxidation and a decarboxylation.Acetyl CoA then reacts with oxaloacetate to form citrate. Both oxaloacetate and citrate are intermediates of the Krebs cycle.

according to the Holt biology book of 2009, mitochondrion is no longer in use
glucose is changed into pyruvate
glucose is changed into pyruvate
The lactate is taken to the liver and converted back to pyruvate.
they will enter the Krebs cycle
Pyruvic acid breakdown occurs through a process called pyruvate oxidation, which takes place in the mitochondria. During this process, pyruvate is converted into acetyl-CoA, releasing carbon dioxide and producing NADH. Acetyl-CoA then enters the Krebs cycle to generate more ATP.
Pyruvate is produced by glucose.By released enegy ATP and NADH is produced.
