Question:
"How many molecule/s of carbon dioxide is/are released from one pyruvic acid molecule being oxidized?
a. 1
b. 3
c. 2
d. 4"
Answer:
letter c/2
Explanation:
Krebs Cycle which occurs in the mitochondrial matrix and generates a pool of chemical energy (ATP, NADH, and FADH₂) from the oxidation of pyruvate, the end product of glycolysis. Pyruvate is transported into the mitochondria and loses carbon dioxide to form acetyl - CoA, a 2-carbon molecule. When acetyl - CoA is oxidized to carbon dioxide in the Krebs cycle, chemical energy is released and captured in the form NADH, FADH₂, and ATP.
Code: 9.22.1.4
