Question

What stage of cellular respiration occurs after the formation of acetyl-CoA? Electron transport chain Fermentation Glycolysis Krebs cycle

Answer 1

the Krebs cycle begins after the formation of acetyl-CoA

Answer 2

Answer: Kreb cycle begins after the formation of acetyl-CoA.

Kreb cycle is also called as the Citric acid cycle (CAC) or Tricarboxylic acid cycle (TCA). It is a sequence of chemical reactions used by aerobic organisms for releasing energy by the oxidation of Acetyl CoA.

In Glycolysis, the oxidation of glucose results in 2pyruvate molecules which are converted to acetyl CoA. The products of the Kreb Cycle for 2 Acetyl CoA processed are
