Citrate and ATP can make acetyl-CoA. Acetyl-CoA enters cycles {TCA cycle} {tricarboxylic acid cycle} {citric acid cycle} {Krebs cycle} and becomes two carbon dioxides and four NADH hydrogens. TCA cycle makes citrate, isocitrate, alpha-ketoglutarate, succinyl-CoA, succinate, fumarate, malate, oxaloacetate, and citrate again. These are mostly three-carbon carboxylic acids. Pyruvate, carbon dioxide, and ATP can make oxaloacetate and malate, which can enter cycle.
purpose
NADH hydrogens are for reduction reactions.
aerobic
TCA cycle uses oxygen to make carbon dioxide.
