2. Link reaction - conversion of pyruvic acid into acetyl coenzyme-A in mitochondrial matrix.
3. Krebs cycle-conversion of acetyl coenzyme A into carbon dioxide and water in the mitochondrial matrix.
4. Electron transport chain and oxidative phosphorylation remove hydrogen atoms from the products of glycolysis, link reaction and Krebs cycle release water molecule with energy in the form of ATP in mitochondrial inner memebrane.
