Question 48 • Biology

How many energy conversions occur when both acetyl-CoA molecules go through the Krebs cycle?

Answer
A
5
B
6
C
10
D
12

Explanation

Each acetyl-CoA going through the Krebs cycle produces 3 NADH, 1 FADH₂, and 1 GTP—5 energy-carrying products in total. Since both acetyl-CoA molecules go through the cycle, that is 2 × 5 = 10 energy conversions. The correct choice is 10.
