  1. Acetyl CoA is a frequent step in the breakdown of all biomolecules in the respiratory route.
  2. Carbohydrates are turned into glucose initially.
  3. The TCA cycle begins with glucose being transformed to pyruvate, which is subsequently decarboxylated to acetyl CoA.
  4. The breakdown of fats results in the formation of fatty acids and glycerol. Acetyl CoA is formed from fatty acids.
  5. Proteins break down as amino acids, which are deaminated and enter the Krebs cycle as pyruvate or acetyl CoA intermediates.

hence correct answer is "Option C"
