Question 42
Short Answer
In addition to the three molecules of NADH produced per molecule of acetate introduced into the citric acid cycle, one molecule of an additional reduced cofactor called _______ is produced.
Question 43
Short Answer
The citric acid cycle produces two reduced cofactors, NADH and _______.
Question 44
Short Answer
During oxidation of a fatty acid, the fatty acid is joined to the molecule _______ and is broken down by stepwise removal of _______-carbon units as part of the molecule _______, which can then enter the citric acid cycle to be metabolized.
