(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Structure of molecule from ball and stick model below has to be determined.

Concept Introduction:

Third stage of catabolism of biomolecules includes citric acid cycle that occurs in mitochondria. This cycle convert carbohydrate, amino acids, and lipids to CO2, H2O, and energy. It consist eight-step in cycle that starts with addition of acetyl CoA to four carbon substrate.

(b)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Precursor of molecule in citric acid cycle represented in ball and stick model below has to be determined.

Concept Introduction:

Refer to part (a)

(c)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Compound formed in citric acid cycle from molecule represented in ball and stick model below has to be determined.

Concept Introduction:

Refer to part (a)
