Question
what is the site of cellular respiration in the cell? mitochondria nucleus golgi body
Cellular respiration is the process by which cells convert nutrients into energy (ATP). Mitochondria are known as the "powerhouses" of the cell because they are the main site where this process occurs. The nucleus contains the cell's genetic material and controls cell activities but is not the site of cellular respiration. The Golgi body is involved in modifying, sorting, and packaging proteins and lipids for secretion or delivery to other organelles, not in cellular respiration.
