Question

What is the main function of the krebs cycle apex?

Answer 1

To break down citric acid and transfer energy to the electrontransport chain.To use pyruvate to produce energy-carrier molecules.

Answer 2

Kreb cycle also known as Tricarboxylic acid cycle or Citric Acid cycle is a biochemical cycle takes places aerobically in mitochondria, generates energy.

In this cycle, energy is produced in a form of ATP by the oxidation of Acetyl-CoA. Acetyl-coA is a molecule that participates in carbohydrates, lipids and protein metabolism. In simple words, it generates energy in a form of ATP that is stored in carbohydrates, proteins and lipid.
