Detailed explanation-1: -The citric acid cycle serves as the mitochondrial hub for the final steps in carbon skeleton oxidative catabolism for carbohydrates, amino acids, and fatty acids. Each oxidative step, in turn, reduces a coenzyme such as nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH) or flavin adenine dinucleotide (FADH2).
Detailed explanation-2: -Lactic acid is never a part of citric acid cycle. Acetyl Co A, citric acid and succinic acid are part of citric acid cycle. Lactic acid is produced in anaerobic respiration in muscles.
Detailed explanation-3: -Overview of the Krebs or citric acid cycle, which is a series of reactions that takes in acetyl CoA and produces carbon dioxide, NADH, FADH2, and ATP or GTP.
Detailed explanation-4: -The TCA cycle is regulated allosterically at the 3 irreversible steps: citrate synthase, isocitrate dehydrogenase and -ketoglutarate dehydrogenase.
