Detailed explanation-1: -In eukaryotes, the Krebs cycle reactions take place in the mitochondrial matrix, a dense solution that surrounds the mitochondria crests: in addition to water, the matrix contains all the enzymes necessary for the biochemical reactions of the cycle, coenzymes, and phosphates.

Detailed explanation-2: -The mitochondrial matrix has the required enzymes and environment for the complex reactions of the Krebs cycle to take place. Further, the products of the Krebs cycle drive the electron transport chain and oxidative phosphorylation, both of which occur in the inner mitochondrial membrane.

Detailed explanation-3: -Also known as the citric acid cycle, the Krebs cycle or TCA cycle is a chain of reactions occurring in the mitochondria, through which almost all living cells produce energy in aerobic respiration. It uses oxygen and gives out water and carbon dioxide as products. Here, ADP is converted into ATP.

Detailed explanation-4: -The Krebs cycle occurs in the mitochondrion matrix.
