Select the correct products of Krebs cycle with respect to the complete breakdown of two acetyl-CoA molecules.
Options
- A6 NADH 2 ; 2 FADH 2 ; 2 GTP
- B3 NADH 2 ; 1 FADH 2 ; 1 GTP
- C8 NADH 2 ; 2 FADH 2 ; 2 GTP
- D6 NADH 2 ; 1 FADH 2 ; 2 GTP
Correct answer
A. 6 NADH 2 ; 2 FADH 2 ; 2 GTP
Step-by-step solution
During a breakdown of acetyl CoA through Krebs cycle, it produces 3 NADH 2 , 1 FADH 2 and 1 GTP. Thus, for 2 rounds of Krebs cycle, it will produce 6 NADH 2, 2 FADH 2 and 2 GTP molecules.
