In the krebs cycle, pyruvate is transported into the mitochondria and
loses carbon dioxide to form acetyl-CoA (2 carbon molecule). When this
oxidized to carbon dioxide, the chemical energy is released and also
captured in the form of ATP, NADPH, and FADH₂. The krebs cycle occurs in
the mitochondrial matrix and generates a pool of chemical energy from
the oxidation of pyruvate, which is the end product of glycolysis....
That's my answer :)))))
