Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The last step in cellular respiration is the electron transport chain.

Answer: F
 The mitochondria are the organelles where cellular respiration takes place.

Answer: G
 Lactic acid is a byproduct of anaerobic respiration.

Answer: B
 The citric acid cycle takes place in the mitochondria and is part of aerobic respiration.

Answer: C
 Pyruvic acid is a product of glycolysis and is used in the citric acid cycle.

Answer: E
 NAD is a coenzyme that plays a role in both glycolysis and the electron transport chain.

Answer: J
 Glycolysis is the first step in both aerobic and anaerobic respiration.

Answer: I
 Anaerobic respiration is a form of metabolism that does not require oxygen.

Answer: D
 Acetyl coenzyme A is a molecule that is produced from pyruvic acid and serves as a substrate in the citric acid cycle.

Answer: A
 The cytosol is the liquid part of the cell where glycolysis takes place.
