Explanation:

The Krebs cycle is a series of chemical reactions used by all aerobic organisms to generate energy through the oxidization of acetate—derived from carbohydrates, fats, and proteins —into carbon dioxide. Theoretically there are several alternatives to the TCA cycle, but the TCA cycle appears to be the most efficient.

Answer 2

Answer:

The reactions which help in converting pyruvic acid to carbon dioxide and water in mitochondria is called Krebs cycle. It is also known as citric acid or tricarboxylic acid cycle (TCA cycle).

In the first reaction of citric acid cycle, acetyl CoA combines with the oxaloacetic acid to form citric acid. This reaction is catalysed by citric acid synthetase. Citric acid contains three carboxylic acid groups. Citric acid is dehydrated to form cis-aconitic acid in the presence of aconitase. The same enzyme aconitase catalyses the formation of isocitric acid from the cis-aconitic acid by the addition of the molecule of water. Citric acid, cis-aconitic acid, and isocitric acid contain three carboxylic acid groups. The isocitric acid is oxidatively decarboxylated to α−α−ketoglutaric acid. This reaction is catalysed by an isocitric dehydrogenase. During this reaction, one NADH

is formed. The α-ketoglutaric acid is oxidatively decarboxylated to form succinyl co-a. This reaction is catalysed by an alpha-ketoglutaric dehydrogenase. The energy released during this reaction is conserved in NADH

. The succinyl-CoA is hydrolysed to succinic acid in the presence of succinyl co-a synthetase. In this reaction, ADP is phosphorylated to ATP. This is called substrate level phosphorylation. The succinic acid is oxidised to form fumaric acid by a succinic dehydrogenase. FAD++ is reduced to FADH

. The fumaric acid is converted to malic acid by the addition of a molecule of water. This reaction is catalysed by fumarase. The malic acid is oxidised to oxaloacetic acid by the enzyme malic dehydrogenase.
