Q. In Krebs’ cycle the, FAD participates as electron acceptor during conversion of :

(a) Fumaric acid to malic acid

(b) Succinyl CoA to succinic acid

(c) α− ketoglutarate to succinyl CoA

(d) Succinic acid to fumaric acid

Solution :

Correct option : D In Krebs cycle the FAD participates as electron acceptor during the conversion of succinic acid to fumaric acid. Then the FAD is converted to FADH₂.
