Question

explain the mechanism of krebs cycle​

Answer 1

KREB'S CYCLE:-

The oxidation of pyruvic acid into CO2 and water is called Krebs cycle. This cycle is also citric acid cycle because the cycle begins with the formation of citric acid. Citric acid is a carboxylic acid containing 3 COOH groups. Hence this cycle is also called as tri carboxylic acid cycle or TCA cycle. This cycle was first described by Kreb's in 1936. This cycle occurs only in the presence of oxygen. Hence it is an aerobic process. It takes place in the mitochondria.
