1 answer

The correct products of the Krebs cycle (also known as the citric acid cycle or TCA cycle) after one molecule of glucose has gone through it can be summarized as follows:

  1. NADH: 6
  2. ATP: 2 (or GTP, depending on the cell type – they are often interchangeable in this context)
  3. CO₂: 4
  4. FADH₂: 2

Therefore, the correct option from your list is:

6 NADH, 2 ATP, 4 CO₂, and 2 FADH₂
