Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Which of these statements is incorrect?
A
Glycolysis operates as long as it is supplied with NADthat can pick up hydrogen atoms
B
Oxidative phosphorylation takes place in outer mitochondrial membrane
C
Glycolysis occurs in cytosol
D
Enzymes of TCA cycle are present in mitochondrial matrix
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Final answer: Oxidative phosphorylation that occurs in the outer mitochondrial matrix is the incorrect statement.

Detailed explanation-2: -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-3: -Glycolysis operates as long as it is supplied with NAD that can pick up hydrogen atoms that are released during oxidation of PGAL. Enzymes of TCA cycle are present in the mitochondrial matrix space. Oxidative phosphorylation takes place in the inner mitochondrial membrane. Thus, the correct answer is option C.
