Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Answer and Explanation: Oxaloacetate is an intermediate of the Krebs cycle but not an end product of the cycle.

Detailed explanation-2: -At the end of the Krebs cycle, the final product is oxaloacetic acid. This is identical to the oxaloacetic acid that begins the cycle. Now the molecule is ready to accept another acetyl-CoA molecule to begin another turn of the cycle.

Detailed explanation-3: -Metabolism of pyruvate results in the formation of acetyl coenzyme-A as the chief end product.

Detailed explanation-4: -1.01. 3.1. 1 Alanine, Asparagine, Aspartate, and Glutamate Are Synthesized From Pyruvate, Oxaloacetate, and 2-Oxoglutarate. Pyruvate, oxaloacetate, and -ketoglutarate are three common -ketoacids, which can be transaminated in one step to alanine, aspartate, and glutamate, respectively.
