In the citric acid cycle:

1. oxygen is used to oxidise the acetyl group carbons of acetyl-CoA in the citric acid cycle.
2. three molecules of NADH and one molecule of FADH2 are produced in one turn.
3. oxygen is not used, so the cycle can occur in anaerobic conditions.
4. water is formed during the complete oxidation of glucose.
