Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The three stages of cellular respiration are glycolysis, citric acid cycle, and oxidative phosphorylation. Glycolysis occurs in the cytoplasm and breaks down glucose into two pyruvate molecules. The citric acid cycle occurs in the mitochondria and completes the breakdown of glucose, generating energy-rich molecules such as NADH and FADH2. Oxidative phosphorylation occurs in the mitochondrial inner membrane and uses electron transport chain to produce ATP from NADH and FADH2. Therefore, choice E is the correct answer.
