The carbon atom(s) of pyruvate is(are) first converted to carbon dioxide by pyruvate dehydrogenase complex is the second number of carbon of pyruvate goes to oxidation and convert it to CO2 in Krebs cycle.
<h3>what is Krebs cycle ?</h3>
Krebs cycle is also known as citric acid cycle it is the conversion of sugar to the direct energy in the form of ATP which further goes to mitochondria as it is the power house of the human cell.
Pyruvate molecule release second number carbon from the chain and undergoes oxidation to form the CO2.
Therefore, second number carbon atom will converts to carbon dioxide.

Synthesis reactions are reactions that occur when two different atoms or molecules interact to form a different molecule or compound. Most of the time, when a synthesis reaction occurs, energy is released and the reaction is exothermic
Defined as a phenomenon of liberation of electron from the surface that is stimulated by temperature elevation, radiation, or by strong electric field.
