In TCA cycle the hydrogen atom removed at succinate level are accepted by ____________while in hexose monophosphate shunt,the hydrogen acceptor is __________

ACoA, NAD

BFAD NADP

CGTP,NAD

DO2,Fd

Answer:

B. FAD NADP

Read Explanation:

In TCA cycle: FAD
In hexose monophosphate shunt (Pentose Phosphate Pathway): NADP

1. TCA cycle: During the conversion of succinate to fumarate, FAD (Flavin Adenine Dinucleotide) accepts the hydrogen atoms, forming FADH2.

2. Hexose monophosphate shunt: In this pathway, NADP+ (Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide Phosphate) acts as the hydrogen acceptor, getting reduced to NADPH.
