Summary Introduction

To find: The molecules that are responsible for capturing energy in the redox reaction of the CAC (citric acid cycle) and the process of formation of ATP.

Introduction: Citric acid cycle is a cyclic metabolic pathway that involves the oxidation of acetyl-CoA to form carbon dioxide, water, and energy. CAC comprises 8 steps, which include multiple redox reactions, hydration, dehydration, and decarboxylation reactions.
