Q335
Sequence of Krebs cycle is
A.
α-Ketoglutaric acid ⟶ Isocitric acid ⟶ Oxalosuccinic acid
B.
Isocitric acid ⟶ Oxalosuccinic acid ⟶ α-Ketoglutaric acid
AnswerC.
Isocitric acid ⟶ α-Ketoglutaric acid ⟶ Oxalosuccinic acid
D.
Oxalosuccinic acid ⟶ Isocitric acid ⟶ α-Ketoglutaric acid
Answer: Option B
Solution
Answer: Option B
Solution:
The sequence of the Krebs cycle is Isocitric acid ⟶ Oxalosuccinic acid ⟶ α-Ketoglutaric acid.The citric acid cycle (CAC) also known as the Krebs cycle is a series of chemical reactions to release stored energy through the oxidation of acetyl-CoA derived from carbohydrates, fats and proteins.
The cycle harnesses the available chemical energy of acetyl coenzyme A (acetyl CoA) into the reducing power of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH).
