Current Question (ID: 11536)

Question:
Which of the following is the connecting link between glycolysis and Krebs cycle?
Options:
  • 1. Acetyl Co-A
  • 2. Oxalosuccinic acid
  • 3. Pyruvic acid
  • 4. Citric acid
Solution:
Glycolysis is the first step of respiration in which glucose is broken down to pyruvate. During glycolysis 1 molecule of glucose is converted to 2 molecules of pyruvic acid in the cytoplasm. These two molecules of pyruvic acid are converted to acetyl CoA by decarboxylation. This acetyl CoA is the connecting link between glycolysis and Krebs' cycle and functions as substrate entrant for Krebs' cycle. Acetyl CoA thus formed participates in Krebs' cycle and combines with oxaloacetic acid to form citrate.
