Question

In Kreb’s cycle, a 6-C compound is formed by the combination of acetyl CoA and (A) succinic acid (B) oxaloacetic acid (C) citric acid (D) malic acid

Acetyl CoA is the connecting link between glycolysis and Kreb’s cycle. The end product of glycolysis is pyruvate. It is converted to Acetyl CoA which enters the krebs cycle by combining with oxaloacetic acid (OAA) to form a 6 - C compound citric acid.
