In the mitochondria. Usually called the Citrate or Krebs Cycle. Never heard it called "Citric"
The reactions of the Citric Acid cycle occur in the matrix of the mitochondria. This is where the enzymes responsible for the cycle are located, allowing the series of chemical reactions to take place and ultimately produce ATP, which is the energy currency of the cell.
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.
The Krebs, or citric acid cycle, occurs in the mitochondrial matrix.
Isocitrate, alpha-ketoglutarate, succinate, fumarate, and malate are tricarboxylic acids in the citric acid cycle.
The citric acid cycle, or Kreb's Cycle, takes place within the Mitochondria. Where exactly in the mitochondria is still unknown. We do know that it does take place within the inner spaces of the Mitochondria.

The reactions of the Citric Acid cycle occur in the matrix of the mitochondria. This is where the enzymes responsible for the cycle are located, allowing the series of chemical reactions to take place and ultimately produce ATP, which is the energy currency of the cell.
Krebs cycle (aka citric acid cycle, aka tricarboxylic acid cycle)
The conguate base of citric acid - citrate - is an important intermediate in the cycle. This is where the name "Citric Acid Cycle" comes from. It is also known as the Tricarboxylic Acid Cycle - as it involves 3 carbon acids, or the Krebs Cycle after Hans Adolf Krebs - who developed the complexities of the cycle.
Acetyl-CoA and oxaloacetate combine to produce citric acid (or citrate) in the citric acid cycle. This is the first step in the cycle, also known as the condensation step.
The net inputs for citric acid cycle are Acetyl CoA, NADH, and ADP. The Net outputs for the citric acid cycle are ATP, NAD, and carbon dioxide.
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.
Citric Acid Cycle TCA Cycle (tricarboxcylic acid cycle).
The citric acid cycle, also known as the Krebs cycle, occurs in the mitochondria of eukaryotic cells.
The Krebs cycle is also known as the citric acid cycle because citric acid is the first compound formed in the cycle. The cycle then proceeds to harvest energy through a series of chemical reactions involving citric acid and other molecules, ultimately producing ATP for cellular energy.
