Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -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-2: -Mitochondria are the cellular sites of respiration, energy production and some aspects of calcium handling.
Detailed explanation-3: -Mitochondria are made up of an outer membrane, an inner membrane, and a gooey matrix inside. They get their nickname “the powerhouse of the cell” because they are home to most of the cellular respiration process, which produces ATP for the cell.
