What are the 8 steps of the Kreb's Cycle?
Me and my friend are studying for our biology mid term, and we can't find the answer. Thanks!

Krebs/Citric Acid Cycle (very basic description):
Acetyl CoA (2C) enters the cycle and combines with Oxaloacetate (4C) to form Citric Acid (6C). NAD is reduced to NADH and in doing so, dehydrogenates the Citric Acid. The Citric Acid is also decarboxylated and as a result gives of a Carbon as Carbon Dioxide. Several intermediates are formed after this stage. Oxaloacetate is formed after two more NAD molecules are reduced to NADH an FAD molecule is reduced to FADH2 and an ATP molecule is produced. The Oxaloacetate goes through the cycle again. The NADH and FADH2 molecules now go to the electron transport chain to facilitate ATP synthesis.

Ouch you have to learn it fully? That is tough, when I had to learn the Krebs Cycle I only had to learn 3 simplified steps, the products themselves were more important than the steps themselves.
Nonetheless I have posted a link below to a diagram of the Krebs Cycle. It looks horribly complicated
