Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

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

Answer: A
 Cytosol is the fluid inside the cell where glycolysis takes place.

Answer: B
 The citric acid cycle is also known as the Krebs cycle and occurs inside the mitochondria.

Answer: D
 Acetyl coenzyme A is the molecule that enters the citric acid cycle.

Answer: E
 NAD is a molecule that can carry high-energy electrons during cellular respiration.

Answer: F
 Mitochondria are where cellular respiration occurs.

Answer: G
 Lactate is a product of anaerobic respiration in muscles.

Answer: I
 Anaerobic means without oxygen, and is a type of cellular respiration that occurs in the absence of oxygen.

Answer: J
