Where does the Citric Acid Cycle take place and under what conditions, what are the reactants and products per pyruvic acid and glucose. It takes place in the mitochondrial matrix, it must have oxygen. The products per pyruvic acid are 3CO2, 1 ATP, 4 NADH, 1 FADH2. The products per glucose are 6CO2, 2 ATP, 8 NADH and 2 FADH2. CO2 is released as waste, ATP is used for cellular functions, and NADH and FADH2 are used to make ATP in the electron transoport chain. The reactants are pyruvic acid (produced in glycolysis-remember 2 pyruvic acids were made per glucose).
