This two-carbon molecule combines with oxaloacetate to start the Krebs cycle.

What is acetyl-CoA?

100

How many molecules of direct ATP are produced in one cycle turn.

What is 1 ATP?

100

What molecule(s) inhibit the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex?

What is acetyl coA and NADH?

100

The citrate-malate shuttle does what?


Transports acetyl CoA from the mitochondrial matrix to the cytosol.

1) Oxaloacetate and acetyl CoA join to form citrate

2) Citrate passes through the inner and outer mitochondrial membrane to enter the cytoplasm

3) Acetyl coA is cleaved off of citrate to produce acetyl coA and oxaloacetate

4) Oxaloacetate is converted into malate which can pass through the outer and inner mitochondrial membrane to enter the mitochondrial matrix

100

Spontaneous reactions have a positive/negative ΔG.

Negative
