Answer:

The correct answer is ACETYL COA FORMATION.

Step-by-step explanation:

Transition reaction connects glycolysis and citric acid which in another name is known as Krebs cycle. ... This connection of transition reaction converts molecules which are 3- carbon pyruvate which is from glycolysis and two molecules of carbon which are acetyl Coenzyme.

Answer:

the transition reaction

Step-by-step explanation:

The transition reaction connects glycolysis to the citric acid (Krebs) cycle. ... The transition reaction converts the two molecules of the 3-carbon pyruvate from glycolysis (and other pathways) into two molecules of the 2-carbon molecule acetyl Coenzyme A (acetyl-CoA) and 2 molecules of carbon dioxide.
