Glycolysis refers to the process of breaking down glucose through enzymatic actions. It is carried out during aerobic respiration and fermentation.

Which part of the cellular respiration produces the most NADH?

The citric acid cycle (also known as the Krebs cycle) produces the most NADH in cellular respiration. NADH is generated during various steps of the cycle as the breakdown of glucose continues to release energy.


Where does the Krebs cylce takes place?

The Krebs cycle, also known as the citric acid cycle, takes place in the matrix of the mitochondria in eukaryotic cells. This multi-step metabolic pathway is responsible for the production of energy in the form of ATP through the oxidation of acetyl-CoA derived from carbohydrates, fats, and proteins.


Krebs cycle place in?

The Krebs cycle takes place in the matrix of the mitochondrion.


The Krebs cycle take place within the?

The Krebs cycle takes place in the mitochondria of cells. It is a series of chemical reactions that are part of cellular respiration, where energy is generated from the breakdown of glucose and other molecules.


How many e- are produced in the Krebs Cycle?

The process of glycolysis produces none but during links reaction, oxygen is required to decarboxylate pyruvate to acetyl coenzyme A that produces one. Acetyle coenzyme A then reacts with oxaloacetate in the crebs cycle to form a 6 carbon molecule called citrate. citrate is then decarboxylated to a 5 carbon molecule giving off annothe C02 and NADH. the 5c compound is the decarboxylated again to form a 4 carbon compound giving off a 3rd CO2 molecule and another NADH. the 4 carbond compound form anothe 4 carbon compound giving off FADH and then forms oxaloacetate again giving off NADH.Overall from the Krebs cycle kicks out two CO2 molecules (3 including links), 3 NADH moleculas (4 Including links) and 1 FADH molecule.

What step during Krebs cycle do electrons pass down the electron transport chain?

During the Krebs cycle, the electrons are carried by NADH and FADH2 to the electron transport chain, where they pass down a series of protein complexes to generate ATP through oxidative phosphorylation. This occurs after the formation of NADH and FADH2 during the Krebs cycle.


Which one is formed during the Krebs cycle FADH2 or pyruvic acid?

FADH2 since pyruvic acid is needed to START the Krebs cycle


What happens during Krebs cycle?

During the Krebs cycle,pyruvic acid is broken down into carbon dioxide in a series of energy-extracting reactions


What gas is in the Krebs cycle?

Carbon dioxide (CO2) is a byproduct of the Krebs cycle. It is produced during the decarboxylation reactions that occur within the cycle, where carbon atoms are removed from molecules like citric acid.


What's the Krebs cycle?

Krebs cycle refers to the sequence of reactions that allow living cells to generate energy during aerobic respiration.


What products of the Krebs cycle are used in the electon transport?

In the Krebs cycle NAD+ is reduced to NADH. This is one of the electron carriers. Also FAD is reduced to FADH2 which is the other electron carrier produced during the Krebs cycle.


During what cycle do a series of reactions occur in the mitochondria which release carbon dioxide?

Are NAD and FAD oxidized or reduced during Krebs?

NAD and FAD are reduced in the Krebs cycle and oxidised in the electron transport chain.
