It says 'of isocitrate', so why do they consider the decarboxylation of alpha-ketoglutaric acid, just because it comes after isocitrate? Most the coaching answer keys say it's option B, but I checked the official key and it's option C. Sometimes I have trouble understanding NTA's brand of logic. Should we apply this understanding of the term to future questions?

Note for OP
+solved @user1 @user2...
to close the thread when your doubt is solved. Mention the users who helped you solve the doubt. This will be added to their stats.actually thers one more step to it
in the cycle
where alpha-ketogluteric acid goes for oxidative decarboxylation also

in our ncert this one is given

with no proper mention of isocitric acid
so it taking in considertaion from citric acid to succinic acid
and all the no. of decarboxylation there
thts why it is 2 as the ans
not one
