Re: Krebs cycle?

Basically: AcetylCoA in - many organic intermediates - 2CO2 out and also 1 Flavin Adenine Dinucleotide(FADH2) and 2 Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotides(NADH).

In terms of chemistry, the AcetylCoA which is a product of Pyruvate Oxidation, is oxidized further and the FADH2 and NADH are electron carriers which are reduced so that they can provide electrons for the next part of Aerobic Respiration.
