The glycine generated during photorespiration enters?
Correct answer: B. Mitochondria
- A. Glyoxysomes
- B. Mitochondria
- C. Peroxisomes
- D. Ribosomes
Explanation
Glycine generated during photorespiration is converted to serine, in the mitochondria which liberates CO2 and ammonia and leads to the reduction of NAD+ to NADH.

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.
