Solution(By Examveda Team)

The citric acid cycle is the alternate name of the TCA cycle.
The citric acid cycle (CAC) also known as the Krebs cycle or the TCA cycle (tricarboxylic acid cycle) is a series of chemical reactions to release stored energy through the oxidation of acetyl-CoA derived from carbohydrates, fats, and proteins.
The Krebs cycle is used by organisms that respire to generate energy, either by anaerobic respiration or aerobic respiration.
