how many NADH are released from TCA cycle

Answers

3 NADH are released from TCA cycle and 1 NADH is released during glycolysis.

guru2761: in ncert book it is written 8 NADH
riyatalukdar: yes i knew that but that one was for 1 pyruvic acid but we know that one molecule of glucose gives 2 molecules of pyruvic acid so if we multiply the product with 2 we will get our answer like i told u 4 NADH so multiply with 2 we get overall ie. 8 NADH
riyatalukdar: see glycolisis cycle in that u will see 2 molecules of pyruvic acid is released
riyatalukdar: so overall we get 8NADH, 2FADH, 2 ATP and 6 CO2
riyatalukdar: Pls mark my answer as brainliest

6 molecules of NADH are produced in Krebs cycle or tca  If my answer helped you then mark me as brainliest


guru2761: in ncert book its 8
garimaahlawat07: Krebs cycle produce 6 molecules NADH & 2 molecules of FADH2 for every 2 molecules of acetyl CoA oxidized by it. 2 molecules of NADH are liberated during conversion of 2 pyruvate to acetyl CoA
garimaahlawat07: So in all there are 8 molecules of NADH
garimaahlawat07: NCERT is always right
riyatalukdar: yes but we need to add the 1 NADH released in glycolisis too
garimaahlawat07: Glucose + 4ADP + 4H3PO4 + 10NAD + 2FAD :- 6CO2 + 4 ATP + 10 NADH + 10H + 2FADH2
