Oxidative decarboxylation of pyruvate produces:
| 1. | 2. Citrate |
| 3. Acetyl-CoA | 4. G3P |
The continued oxidation of acetyl CoA via the TCA cycle requires the continued replenishment of:
| I. Oxaloacetic acid | II. NAD+ | III. FAD |
| 1. | I and II only | 2. | I and III only |
| 3. | II and III only | 4. | I, II and III |
| I: | pyruvic acid is reduced. |
| II: | NAD+ is oxidized. |
Krebs cycle is also called as:
| 1. | glycolysis | 2. | fermentation |
| 3. | Calvin cycle | 4. | the citric acid cycle |
| 1. | α-ketoglutaric acid | 2. | fumaric acid |
| 3. | isocitric acid | 4. | succinyl-CoA |
In the citric acid cycle:
| 1. | oxygen is used to oxidise the acetyl group carbons of acetyl-CoA in the citric acid cycle. |
| 2. | three molecules of NADH and one molecule of FADH2 are produced in one turn. |
| 3. | oxygen is not used, so the cycle can occur in anaerobic conditions. |
| 4. | water is formed during the complete oxidation of glucose. |
| 1. | Isocitrate – Citrate – Succinyl CoA – α ketoglutarate |
| 2. | Citrate – Isocitrate – Succinyl CoA – α ketoglutarate |
| 3. | Citrate – Isocitrate – α ketoglutarate – Succinyl CoA |
| 4. | Isocitrate – Citrate – α ketoglutarate – Succinyl CoA |
During the conversion of succinyl CoA to succinic acid in TCA cycle:
1. One molecule of ATP is directly synthesized
2. is reduced
3. FAD is reduced
4. One molecule of GTP is synthesized
| 1. | 1 and 1 | 2. | 2 and 1 |
| 3. | 3 and 1 | 4. | 6 and 2 |
At how many points in the TCA cycle is reduced to NADH + ?
| 1. | 2 | 2. | 3 |
| 3. | 4 | 4. | 6 |
