Oxidative phosphorylation, synthesis of ATP in presence of oxygen occurs in:
Correct answer: D. All aerobic cell
- A. All types of cells
- B. All anaerobic cells
- C. All primitive cells
- D. All aerobic cell
Explanation
Oxidative phosphorylation, the synthesis of ATP in the presence of oxygen, occurs in all aerobic cells. Aerobic cells are cells that require oxygen to survive. They use oxidative phosphorylation to generate most of their ATP, which is the main source of energy for cellular processes.

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.
