Per glucose, the Krebs cycle produces
A.6 NADH, 2 FADH₂, 2 ATP, and CO₂
B.2 NADH, 2 FADH₂, 2 ATP only
C.only ATP
D.glucose
Explanation
Core Concept
Two acetyl-CoA turns each yield 3 NADH, 1 FADH₂, 1 ATP (GTP), and 2 CO₂ — doubled for one glucose. The electron carriers then feed oxidative phosphorylation.
Correct Answer
A6 NADH, 2 FADH₂, 2 ATP, and CO₂
