To be fair, the way the Krebs cycle is taught is usually pretty grim (speaking as a biochemistry major)

Easy:

  1. Kreb eat
  2. Krab make baby krabs
  3. Old crab die
  4. Baby crabs grow
    And so the crab cycle repeats

That's cellular respiration! The mitochondria, THE POWERHOUSE OF ALL CELLS EVERYWHERE, does that one! It's the one that keeps life living. 3 ADP -> 2 ATP iirc.

Glycolysis yields 2 ATP. Cellular respiration can get ATP into the 30s under ideal conditions.
