Brief Explanations

Pyruvate dehydrogenase is an enzyme complex that plays a crucial role in the link reaction between glycolysis and the citric acid cycle. Prokaryotes lack mitochondria, so pyruvate dehydrogenase is located in the cytosol. Eukaryotes have mitochondria, and pyruvate dehydrogenase is located in the mitochondrial matrix.

Answer:

In the cytosol of prokaryotes and the mitochondrial matrix of eukaryotes
