Which of the following combination is true?
|
|
4C Malate, 5C Oxaloacetate
|
|
|
4C Isocitrate, 5C Succinyl CoA
|
|
|
4C Fumarate, 5C alpha-ketoglutarate
|
|
|
4C Citrate, 5C Succinate
|
Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Hence, the correct answer is ‘Oxaloacetic acid’
Detailed explanation-2: -RUBP is a 5-carbon compound that acts as a carbon dioxide acceptor in the Calvin cycle in photosynthesis.
Detailed explanation-3: -This cycle starts with the entry of acetyl CoA. Acetyl CoA is a 2C compound combined with a 4C compound of oxaloacetate in presence of enzyme citrate synthase, this leads to the production of 6C compound dicarboxylic or citric acid.
Detailed explanation-4: -‘alpha‘-ketoglutaric acid is the only 5C compound formed in krebs’ cycle.
