Which statement is true? (1 point)
Cellular respiration o takes place in mitochondria and chloroplasts.
Cellular respiration o takes place in the cytoplasm and the Golgi apparatus.
Cellular respiration o takes place in the cytoplasm and the nucleus.
Cellular respiration o takes place in the cytoplasm and mitochondria.
Cellular respiration takes place in the cytoplasm and mitochondria.
To determine which statement is true, we need to understand where cellular respiration takes place.
Cellular respiration is the process by which cells convert glucose and oxygen into ATP (adenosine triphosphate), the main source of energy for cellular functions. It occurs in the presence of mitochondria, which are membrane-bound organelles found in most eukaryotic cells.
Based on this information, we can conclude that the statement "Cellular respiration takes place in the cytoplasm and mitochondria" is true. The cytoplasm is where the initial steps of cellular respiration occur, while the mitochondria are responsible for the final steps and the production of ATP.
