Which of the following options lists the stages in cellular respiration in the correct order?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The correct order of stages in cellular respiration is glycolysis, the citric acid cycle, and oxidative phosphorylation. Glycolysis takes place in the cytoplasm and breaks down glucose into pyruvate. Pyruvate then enters the mitochondria and undergoes the citric acid cycle (also known as the Krebs cycle) which produces ATP and electron carriers. The electron carriers are then used in oxidative phosphorylation, which takes place in the inner mitochondrial membrane and produces the majority of ATP through the process of chemiosmosis. Therefore, option A is the correct sequence of stages in cellular respiration.
