The Krebs Cycle Occurs in the Mitochondria \rightarrow Forming Citrate \rightarrow Which Forms Beta-Ketoglutarate

Question 39

Multiple Choice

The Krebs cycle occurs in the mitochondria.There are nine biochemical reactions involved in the Krebs cycle, and they are highly ordered.Select the correct order.(Note: These are abbreviated and do not show NAD, ADP, ATP, or FAD.)


A) acetyl-CoA joins the Kreb cycle and unites with oxaloacetate \rightarrow forming citrate \rightarrow which forms beta-ketoglutarate \rightarrow which forms succinyl-CoA \rightarrow which forms succinate \rightarrow which forms fumarate \rightarrow which forms malate \rightarrow which forms oxaloacetate
B) acetyl-CoA joins the Kreb cycle and unites with oxaloacetate \rightarrow forming citrate \rightarrow which forms alpha-ketoglutarate \rightarrow which forms succinyl-CoA \rightarrow which forms succinate \rightarrow which forms malate \rightarrow which forms fumarate \rightarrow which forms oxaloacetate
C) acetyl-CoA joins the Kreb cycle and unites with oxaloacetate \rightarrow which forms alpha-ketoglutarate \rightarrow forming citrate \rightarrow which forms succinyl-CoA \rightarrow which forms succinate \rightarrow which forms fumarate \rightarrow which forms malate \rightarrow which forms oxaloacetate
D) acetyl-CoA joins the Kreb cycle and unites with oxaloacetate \rightarrow forming citrate \rightarrow which forms alpha-ketoglutarate \rightarrow which forms succinyl-CoA \rightarrow which forms succinate \rightarrow which forms fumarate \rightarrow which forms malate \rightarrow which forms oxaloacetate
