Answer:1.

Explanation: This reaction is catalyzes by pyruvate dehydrogenase. Pyruvate being the end product of glycolysis has many fates after glycolysis,one of which is to enter the TCA(Tricarboxylic acid cycle) cycle. It is first converted to actetate by the action of pyruvate dehydrogenase. This enzyme converts pyruvate to acetate releasing CO2 and NADH because this oxidative decarboxylation of pyruvate is coupled with reduction of NAD+ which can feed into the electron transport chain.
