Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
What cell part is involved in cellular respiration?
A
Nucleus
B
Mitochondria
C
Cell Membrane
D
Chloroplast
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The mitochondrion is the main organelle where cellular respiration occurs. Organelles are structures that perform specific jobs within the cell. After the Krebs cycle, the electron transport chain occurs in the cristae of the inner mitochondrial membrane.

Detailed explanation-2: -Cellular respiration takes place in the cytoplasm and mitochondria of each cell of the body. Glycolysis occurs inside the cytoplasm, while the TCA cycle occurs inside the matrix of the mitochondria.

Detailed explanation-3: -the inner mitochondrial membrane, the cristae (formed by infoldings of the inner membrane), and. the matrix (space within the inner membrane).

Detailed explanation-4: -While most aerobic respiration (with oxygen) takes place in the cell’s mitochondria, and anaerobic respiration (without oxygen) takes place within the cell’s cytoplasm.

Detailed explanation-5: -Mitochondria are membrane bound organelles present in almost all eukaryotic cells.
