Glycolysis and Transition Reaction
- When a single glucose completes glycolysis, 2 carbon dioxide molecules are produced in the transition reaction.
Krebs Cycle Reactions
- The end product of Reaction 1 in the Krebs cycle is citrate.
History of the Krebs Cycle
- The Krebs cycle was discovered by Hans Krebs.
