Respiratory enzymes are present in bacteria on:
Correct answer: C. Plasma membrane
- A. Mitochondria
- B. Golgi complex
- C. Plasma membrane
- D. Endoplasmic reticulum
Explanation
In bacteria, the respiratory enzymes are embedded in the plasma membrane. The bacterial plasma membrane serves a role similar to the inner mitochondrial membrane in eukaryotes, where electron transport chains and oxidative phosphorylation take place.

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.
