The main function of the Krebs cycle is to generate energy for the cell. The Krebs cycle is also known as the citric acid cycle and is part of cellular respiration. Cellular respiration is a series of chemical reactions that cells use to break up sugars into a form that the cell can use. Cell respiration requires oxygen to take place. Cellular respiration consists of four stages:1. the breaking down of glucose into molecules (glycolysis)2. the link reaction - this process forms a link between glycolysis and the Krebbs reaction3. Krebbs reaction 4. The electron transport chain
Covalent bonds are formed when two non metal atoms share an electron. The atoms either give up or gain an electron, due to the outer shell being unstable.
A genotype is the genetic makeup if an organism. So let's say we have the freckles gene with freckles (F) being dominant and no freckles (f) being recessive. Let's also say Bob is heterozygous so his genotype for the freckles gene would be Ff. If he was homozygous dominant, he would have the genotype FF and if he was homozygous recessive, he would have the genotype ff.
