Question
Which of the following is not a product of the citric acid cycle?
Correct Answer
Option B is the correct answer.
Detailed Explanation
The citric acid cycle (Krebs cycle) oxidizes acetyl-CoA, producing CO2, ATP (via substrate-level phosphorylation), NADH, and FADH2. It does not synthesize glucose; gluconeogenesis is a separate anabolic pathway.
Hint
The cycle breaks down molecules, it doesn't build complex carbohydrates.
