5. What molecule is essential to regenerate at the end of the Krebs cycle to start the process again?
vitfil [10]

Answer: Oxaloacetate

Explanation: The krebs cycle starts with the pyruvic acid that is obtained after glycolysis. The Kreb's cycle begins when the Acetyl coA combines with a four molecule oxaloacetate.

The main product formed is citric acid thats why the cycle is also called as citric acid cycle. After the citric acid is formed it goes through a series of reactions to form NADH, FADH2 and ATP.

The carbon dioxide is also released during this process. The oxaloacetate formed is used to start the cycle so its is regenerated again and again.

The reason animals need a continuous supply of oxygen jis to _______________________. make carbon dioxide dispose of carbon diox
Alisiya [41]

The reason animals need a continuous supply of oxygen is to<u> Obtain energy from their food.</u>

<u></u>

The most fundamental reason why animals need a non-stop delivery of oxygen is without it animals can't achieve sufficient power from their meals.

Cells require a steady delivery of power to generate and preserve the biological order that keeps them alive. This electricity is derived from the chemical bond energy in food molecules, which thereby function as fuel for cells.

The animal's metabolism converts oxygen into strength. All through this system, a waste gas called carbon dioxide is produced. To remove it, the carbon dioxide is carried lower back to the lungs, where its miles are collected and exhaled.
