What is the purpose of the Krebs cycle in a cell?

The purpose of the Krebs Cycle is basically to produce NADH+H and FADH2. Pyruvic acid enters the Krebs Cycle than goes through a series of reactions and the final product is six NADH+H and two FADH2. These energy carriers are than sent to the electron transport chain. The Krebs cycle goes around twice for every molecule.


What goes into the pyruvate cell?

It is changed into Acetyl CoA, which is then used in the citric acid cycle (aka Krebs Cycle).


What does the carbon atoms in pyruvic acid end up as in the atmosphere following the Krebs cycle?

if you're talking about after the carbons are exhaled through CO2 the the pyruvate need to give off more CO2 for it to be Acetyl Co-A to pass through the mitochondrial membrane to go through the Krebs cycle. so in the Krebs cycle it's acetyl Co-A. Then it goes to the electron transport chain.


Why is the Citric Acid cycle called a cycle?

The Citric Acid cycle is called a cycle because it is a series of chemical reactions that regenerates its starting molecule, oxaloacetate, at the end. This allows the cycle to continue repeatedly as long as there are substrates available.


If oxygen is present what are the 3 steps in cellular respiration?

Glycolysis, Krebs cycle and the electron transport chain. Glucose, polysaccharides and discaccharides go into glycolysis and that cycle can produce 2 ATP (adenosine triphosphate). Electrons are transfered to the Electron Transport chain. Pyruvic acid fermentation can make 2 ATP then goes down, releasing 2 NADH2 to the Electron Transport chain, with Acetyl CoA into the Krebs cycle which makes 4 CO2 and 4 ATP as well as sends 6 NADH2 and 2 FADH2 down to the electron transport chain. The 2 NADH2, 2 NADH2, 6 NADH2 and 2 FADH2 then go down the electron transport chain realeasing energy a bit each time it goes down and in the end 34 ATP is created.

What substance goes into the Krebs cycle?

the goal is to take pyruvate and put it into the Krebs cycle, producing NADH and FADH2this is located in the mitochondria.The Krebs cycle and the conversion of pyruvate to Acetyl CoA produce 2 ATP's, 8 NADH's, and 2FADH2's per glucose molecule

Why does substance's volume change when it goes through a chemical change?

When reactants are converted into products some amount of reactant actually do not get converted into product. This is the case in any process. Total conversion of reactant species into product species is never possible.


What happen to the reactant rate as a reactant gets used up?

The rate goes down.

How do you find the rate order of a concentration of a substance using a graph?

The rate order of a concentration of a substance using a graph depends on the constant k. For a reactant concentration versus time graph, k is minus and the order is zero. The same goes for a logarithm reactant concentration versus time graph where the order is one. But for an inverse of reactant concentration versus time graph, the order is two and k is positive. All these graphs should have straight lines and k is the value of the slope.


How do you use reactant in a sentence?

The reactant was so minimal that it was very hard to notice by the students. Reactant is the change that something goes through.


What happens to the reaction rate as reactant gets used up?
