Question 5. In one of the metabolic reactions in the citric acid cycle, which provides energy for ATP synthesis, succinic acid is converted to fumaric acid.
C4H6O4 (succinic acid) -----> C4H4O4 + 2H (fumaric acid)
The reaction is accompanied by a coenzyme, falvin adenine dinucleotide (FAD).
FAD + 2H --> FADH2
a. is succinic acid oxidized or reduced?
b. is FAS oxidized or reduced?
c. Why would the reactions occur together?
