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: -The Process of Respiration in Plants Leaves possess stomata – tiny pores, for gaseous exchange. The oxygen consumed via stomata is used up by cells in the leaves to disintegrate glucose into water and carbon dioxide.
Detailed explanation-3: -In the mitochondria, cellular respiration occurs in the mitochondrial matrix through the Krebs cycle to form ATP, FADH2 and NADH. The formed FADH2 and NADH then go into the inner mitochondrial membrane where they are involved in the electron transport chain to form more ATP molecules.
Detailed explanation-4: -Glycolysis takes place in the cytoplasm. Within the mitochondrion, the citric acid cycle occurs in the mitochondrial matrix, and oxidative metabolism occurs at the internal folded mitochondrial membranes (cristae).
Detailed explanation-5: -Photosynthesis takes place in the chloroplasts and organelles of a plant cell. Respiration takes place in the cytoplasm and mitochondria in the cell of a living organism.
