Glycolysis process occur in?

Correct answer: A. cytosol

  • A. cytosol
  • B. Mitochondria
  • C. Matrix
  • D. Endoplasmic reticulum

Explanation

Glycolysis takes place in the cytosol, the fluid portion of the cell outside the mitochondria, and splits one glucose molecule into two pyruvate molecules. The mitochondrial matrix is the site of the Krebs cycle, not glycolysis. Students may choose mitochondria because most later aerobic-respiration stages occur there.
