Molecules
Name the key molecule involved in the Krebs Cycle that comes from glycolysis
Pyruvate
The Krebs cycle takes place in this part of the cell.
What is the mitochondrial matrix?
The Krebs cycle makes this gas as a waste product.
What is carbon dioxide(CO2)?
This 2-carbon molecule is the main input of the Krebs cycle.
What is Acetyl-CoA?
monkey with roots and big feet
BRR BRR PATAPIM
This 6-carbon molecule is the first formed in the cycle.
What is citric acid?
In the first step, Acetyl-CoA combines with this molecule to form citrate.
What is oxaloacetate?
One turn of the cycle produces this many NADH molecules.
What is 3?
This molecule must be present for the Krebs cycle to keep running.
What is oxygen?
Log looking thing with a bat
TUNG TUNG TUNG TUNG TUNG TUNG TUNG SAHUR
This electron carrier is reduced to NADH
What is NAD?
During this step, carbon is removed and CO₂ is released.
This number of ATP (or GTP) is produced per cycle turn.
What is 1?
This carrier accepts electrons and becomes FADH2
What is FAD?
crocodile combined with airplane
BOMBARDILLO CROCODILLO
This molecule is regenerated at the end of the cycle to allow the cycle to continue
What is oxaloacetate?
This type of reaction transfers electrons to carriers like NAD⁺ and FAD.
What is oxidation?
The energy from NADH and FADH₂ is later used in this process.
What is the electron transport chain?
This total number of carbon dioxide molecules are released per glucose.
What is 4?
coffee ballerina
BALLERINA CAPPUCINA
This high energy molecule is produced in one step of the cycle and can be used like ATP
What is GTP
This step of the cycle directly produces GTP (or ATP).
What is substrate-level phosphorylation?
From one glucose molecule, this many total NADH are produced in the Krebs cycle.
What is 6?
These are all the energy-rich outputs made by one turn of the cycle.
What are 3 NADH, 1FADH2, and 1 ATP?
tire with lizard/frog
BONECA AMBALABU
