Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The citric acid cycle, also known as the Krebs cycle, takes place in the mitochondrial matrix. This is the innermost compartment of the mitochondria, separated from the intermembrane space by the inner mitochondrial membrane. The other options listed are not correct as the cytoplasm, cytosol, inner-mitochondrial membrane, and outer-mitochondrial membrane are not the locations where the citric acid cycle reactions occur.
