Question

In reaction 6 of the Citric Acid Cycle, succinate is converted to fumarate through dehydrogenation. What is the role of FAD in this process?

Accepted Answer

FAD accepts electrons and protons from succinate, forming FADH2.

Answer

FAD donates electrons to fumarate, forming a double bond.

Answer

FAD acts as a coenzyme to synthesize ATP directly.

Answer

FAD hydrolyzes succinate, releasing acetyl CoA.
