Which of the following processes occur in the cytoplasm?
A
Glycolysis
B
Alcoholic Fermentation
C
Lactic Acid Fermentation
D
All of these
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Answer and Explanation: The process which takes place in the cytoplasm of a cell is glycolysis.

Detailed explanation-2: -Most cellular activities take place within the cytoplasm, such as many metabolic pathways including glycolysis, and processes such as cell division. The concentrated inner area is called the endoplasm and the outer layer is called the cell cortex or the ectoplasm.

Detailed explanation-3: -Answer and Explanation: Translation of mRNA into proteins occurs in the cytoplasm. The process occurs on structures known as ribosomes and these are usually found within the rough endoplasmic reticulum. During translation mRNA binds the ribosomes and amino acids are brought to the ribosome by tRNA molecules.

Detailed explanation-4: -It contains organelles, structures and cytoplasmic inclusions. Its function is to transport, maintain cell shape and structure, protect, store macromolecules and act as the host to metabolic processes.
