Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Where does aerobic respiration occur in animals?
A
All cells
B
Only in muscle cells
C
Only in organs
D
Only in the brain
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 is where aerobic respiration takes place. Glycolysis, Krebs’s cycle, and the electron transport chain are the stages of aerobic respiration that occur. Except for red blood cells, it is a cell organelle found in all cells.

Detailed explanation-3: -Both plant and animal cells require oxygen for aerobic cellular respiration, which occurs within the mitochondria which are found in both plant and animal cells.

Detailed explanation-4: -Anaerobic respiration usually occurs in lower plants and microorganisms. In the absence of oxygen, the glucose derived from food is broken down into alcohol and carbon dioxide along with the production of energy.

Detailed explanation-5: -Complete step by step answer: Mitochondria is the site where aerobic respiration occurs.
