Detailed explanation-1: -It takes place in the mitochondria of a cell.
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: -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-4: -Calvin’s cycle does not occur in cellular respiration. This cycle is part of photosynthesis.
Detailed explanation-5: -Cellular respiration takes place in the cells of all organisms. In the cell, the food (glucose) is broken down into carbon dioxide and water using oxygen. When breakdown of glucose occurs with the use of oxygen it is called aerobic respiration.
