Biology Krebs cycle

what are we now done making?

CO2- we have 6

What is released as the citric acid is broken down into a 4 carbon compound?

it gets rid of two carbons and those carbons are released as CO2 molecules, so in reality 4CO2 molecules are made

How many ATP do we have in total now and how many more do we need?

4 we need 32-34 more

What are the end products of the krebs cycle and where do they go?

4 CO2- waste 6 NADPH- etc 2 ATP 2 FADH2- etc

What is needed for the krebs cycle?

6 NAD+ 2 FAD 2 ADP 2 acetyl CoA

Why is the krebs cycle called a cycle?

because the process starts over and over again because the citric acid is reused as the 4 carbon compound over and over again.

describe the formation of citric acid, the first step in the krebs cycle

the acetyl CoA combines with a 4 carbon compound to make a citric acid
