What would happen if NAD+ was not generated for the citric acid cycle? Question 4 options: The pyruvate would be recycled back to glycolysis to form glucose again. Oxygen would accept the high-energy electrons and form water. The cycle would continue until NAD+ was available again. The further breakdown of pyruvate in the citric acid cycle would halt. Oxaloacetate and water would combine to create acetyl-CoA. The pyruvate would be recycled back to glycolysis to form glucose again. Oxygen would accept the high-energy electrons and form water.
