KCET · BIOLOGY · STD 11 - 12. Respiration in Plants
The site of Kreb's cycle is
- A cytoplasm
- B mitochondrial matrix
- C intermembrane space of mitochondria
- D racker's particles
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) mitochondrial matrix
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
(B) mitochondrial matrix,
The Krebs cycle, also known as the citric acid cycle or TCA cycle, takes place in the mitochondrial matrix. During the cycle, acetyl CoA is oxidized to produce ATP, NADH, \(FADH _2\), and \(CO _2\), which are essential for energy production cells. The mitochondrial matrix provides the necessary environment and enzymes for this process to occur efficiently.
