Answer:

C. The Krebs cycle

Step-by-step explanation:

In respiration, acetyl COA is produced before the Krebs cycle and then used by it. Since it is used by the Krebs cycle, that makes it a reactant of the Krebs cycle meaning that the correct answer is C.

The citric acid cycle (also known as the Krebs Cycle) is actually a part of the much larger process called cellular respiration, the process where your body harvests energy from the food you eat. Yes, the citric acid cycle has the same citric acid found in oranges and other citrus fruits!
