Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
The chemical reactions of the Citric Acid Cycle take place in
A
Inner mitochondrial membrane
B
Outer mitochondrial membrane
C
Mitochondrial matrix
D
Intermembrane space of mitochondria
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The Krebs cycle or TCA cycle (tricarboxylic acid cycle) or Citric acid cycle is a series of enzyme catalysed reactions occurring in the mitochondrial matrix, where acetyl-CoA is oxidised to form carbon dioxide and coenzymes are reduced, which generate ATP in the electron transport chain.

Detailed explanation-2: -Answer and Explanation: The citric acid cycle occurs in the mitochondrial matrix, which is the inside of the mitochondria. It is necessary for the cycle to take place here. The byproducts of the citric acid cycle are used in the electron transport chain to produce ATP.

Detailed explanation-3: -Overview of the citric acid cycle In eukaryotes, the citric acid cycle takes place in the matrix of the mitochondria, just like the conversion of pyruvate to acetyl CoAstart text, C, o, A, end text. In prokaryotes, these steps both take place in the cytoplasm.

Detailed explanation-4: -Explanation: The citric acid cycle takes place in the mitochondrial matrix. Glycolysis takes place in the cytosol, and the electron transport chain involves both the intermembrane space and the inner mitochondrial membrane. Pyruvate from glycolysis is transported into the mitochondrial matrix for the citric acid cycle.

Detailed explanation-5: -In eukaryotic cells, the citric acid cycle occurs in the matrix of the mitochondrion.
