Cellular respiration depending upon the type of the cell and prevailing conditions varies from the step after:
Correct answer: C. Glycolysis
- A. Oxidation of pyruvate
- B. Citric acid cycle
- C. Glycolysis
- D. Oxidative phosphorylation
Explanation
If aerobic conditions prevail after glycolysis it will follow the path of oxidation of pyruvate and Kreb's cycle otherwise it will follow the path of lactic acid fermentation or alcoholic fermentation.

About Bioenergetics
Cellular respiration explains how cells release energy from glucose through glycolysis, the link reaction, Krebs cycle and electron transport chain. It includes ATP production, substrate-level and oxidative phosphorylation, aerobic versus anaerobic respiration, and the roles of mitochondria, oxygen and fermentation in energy transfer.
