Succinate is oxidized and forms:
Correct answer: C. FADH2
- A. FAD
- B. FADH
- C. FADH2
- D. NADH2
Explanation
Succinate is oxidized to fumarate in the citric acid cycle, and during this process, FAD is reduced to form FADH2. FADH2, along with NADH, plays a crucial role in the electron transport chain to produce ATP during oxidative phosphorylation. The overall reaction is: Succinate+FAD→Fumarate+FADH2
