Question

the krebs cycle forms many products. which option lists the correct products of the krebs cycle after 1 molecule of glucose goes through it? (1 point) 6 nadh, 2 atp, 4 co₂, and 2 fadh₂ net 4 nadh, 4 atp, 8 co₂, 4 fadh₂ 1 nadh, 1 atp, 2 co₂, 1 fadh₂ net 2 nad⁺, 2 atp, 4 co₂, 2 fadh

Explanation:

Step1: Recall Krebs cycle facts

One - glucose molecule produces 2 pyruvate molecules. Each pyruvate molecule enters the Krebs cycle once.

Step2: Calculate products per glucose

For each pyruvate in the Krebs cycle: 3 NADH, 1 FADH₂, 1 ATP and 2 CO₂ are produced. For 2 pyruvates (from 1 glucose), we get 6 NADH, 2 FADH₂, 2 ATP and 4 CO₂.

Answer:

6 NADH, 2 FADH₂, 2 ATP, 4 CO₂
