Kreb's cycle or the citric acid cycle is a part of cellular respiration involving a series of reactions to release stored energy by the oxidation of Acetly CoA.

The first step of the citric acid cycle shows a decrease in free energy which is coupled with an increase in free energy. It begins with the transfer of acetyl group from the acetyl CoA to form an oxaloacetate which further forms citrate. Acetyl CoA forming CoA shows a decrease in the free energy which is coupled with the conversion of the oxaloacetate into the citrate showing an increase in free energy.

Further, the conversion of citrate into α- ketoglutarate shows a decrease in the free energy which is coupled with the reduction of NAD+ to NADH showing an increase in free energy.

Krebs cycle is <span>the sequence of reactions by which most living cells generate energy during the process of aerobic respiration. It takes place in the mitochondria, consuming oxygen, producing carbon dioxide and water as waste products, and converting ADP to energy-rich ATP.

I hope my answer has come to your help. God bless and have a nice day ahead!

1.what are the characteristics of bacteria
qwelly [4]
#1: Bacteria are like eukaryotic cells in that they have cytoplasm, ribosomes, and a plasma membrane. Features that distinguish a bacterial cell from a eukaryotic cell include the circular DNA of the nucleoid, the lack of membrane-bound organelles, the cell wall of peptidoglycan, and flagella. #2: Archaea have more complex RNA polymerases than Bacteria, similar to Eucarya. Unlike bacteria, archaea cell walls do not contain peptidoglycan. Archaea have different membrane lipid bonding from bacteria and eukarya. There are genetic differences. #10: Bacteria are classified into 5 groups according to their basic shapes: spherical (cocci), rod (bacilli), spiral (spirilla), comma (vibrios) or corkscrew (spirochaetes). They can exist as single cells, in pairs, chains or clusters. #12: Bacteria reproduce .In this process the bacterium, which is a single cell, divides into two identical daughter cells. Binary fission begins when the DNA of the bacterium divides into two (replicates). Each daughter cell is a clone of the parent cell. #13: Pathogenic bacteria are bacteria that can cause disease. ... One of the bacterial diseases with the highest disease burden is tuberculosis, caused by the bacterium Mycobacterium tuberculosis, which kills about 2 million people a year, mostly in sub-Saharan Africa. Infection with a pathogen does not necessarily lead to disease. Infection occurs when viruses, bacteria, or other microbes enter your body and begin to multiply.Pathogenic microbes challenge the immune system in many ways. Viruses make us sick by killing cells or disrupting cell function. #14: Antibiotics work by affecting things that bacterial cells have but human cells don't. For example, human cells do not have cell walls, while many types of bacteria do. The antibiotic penicillin works by keeping a bacterium from building a cell wall. HOPE I HELPED I Don’t NO #11

Which would most likely happen if a cell undergoes mitosis, but not cytokinesis?
steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

Logically, the cell would have two nuclei because karyokinesis (the division of the nucleus) occurs before cytokinesis (division of the cytoplasm).
