question
where do plants carry out the latter stages of cellular respiration-citric acid cycle, electron transport chain, and oxidative phosphorylation?
answer
in the cytosol
in the mitochondria
plants do not use cellular respiration.
in the chloroplast
i dont know yet
Cellular respiration in plants occurs in mitochondria. The citric acid cycle (Krebs cycle) takes place in the mitochondrial matrix. The electron transport chain and oxidative phosphorylation occur on the inner mitochondrial membrane. The cytosol is where glycolysis (an earlier stage of cellular respiration) occurs. Chloroplasts are for photosynthesis, not cellular respiration. And plants do use cellular respiration.
