What else can I help you with?
Where does TCA cycle occur in the cell?
TCA cycle occur in the mitochondria (the power house of the cell)
What is anaploretic?
It means "Filling up"... If we are talking about the TCA cycle, which I am assuming we are. A set of reactions, one of which is the glyoxylate cycle supports the TCA cycle with intermediates that are used in making other molecules, therefore filling in the intermediate that were used in other reactions. For example, Citrate is used to make Fatty Acids and Cholesterol. When citrate is pulled from the TCA cycle to make these molecules fewer citrate molecules will go through the TCA cycle making less succinate and there for less oxaloacetate. The glyoxylate cycle makes up for this deficit by making succinate, fumarate, and malate which will proceed to complete the TCA cycle.
How many NADH's are generated after one cycle of the TCA?
Two molecules of NADH are generated after one cycle of the TCA (Krebs) cycle.
Which of the following outlines the overall sequence of events in the complete oxidation of glucose?
Glycolysis, TCA cycle, electron transport chain
Is oxygen used in the TCA cycle?
No, oxygen is not directly used in the TCA (tricarboxylic acid) cycle. The TCA cycle, also known as the citric acid cycle, is a series of chemical reactions that occur in the mitochondria and is primarily involved in generating energy from carbohydrates, fats, and proteins. Oxygen is used in the electron transport chain, which is a separate process that follows the TCA cycle and is responsible for the final stages of cellular respiration.
Is the TCA cycle the same as Krebs Cycle?
Yes, the TCA (tricarboxylic acid) cycle is another name for the Krebs cycle or citric acid cycle. These terms are used interchangeably to describe the same metabolic pathway that occurs in the mitochondria of cells, producing ATP and carbon dioxide as part of aerobic respiration.
What pathway is phosphofructokinase involved in?
Glycolytic and TCA cycle
What is the kerb cycle also called?
The kerb cycle is also known as the citric acid cycle or the TCA cycle.
What is the name for the cyclic reaction that occurs in aerobic respiration?
Kreb's cycle or TCA cycle

What are anabolic reaction in tca cycle?
Anabolic reactions in the TCA cycle involve the production of intermediates that can be used for the synthesis of molecules such as amino acids, fatty acids, and nucleotides. For example, oxaloacetate produced in the TCA cycle can be used for gluconeogenesis or for the synthesis of amino acids. These reactions require energy input and are generally biosynthetic in nature.
What is the source of energy produced by the mitochondria?
The TCA cycle for the most part.
