Question

Where does the second process of aerobic respiration take place?

(a) In the lumen of mitochondria

(b) In the matrix of mitochondria

(c) In the inner membrane of mitochondria

(d) In the cristae of mitochondria

I got this question in final exam.

The question is from Aerobic Respiration in portion Respiration in Plants of Biology – Class 11

Answer 1

The correct answer is (c) In the inner membrane of mitochondria

To explain I would say: The two stages of aerobic respiration are Kreb’s cycle and electron transport system. The first process takes place in the matric of mitochondria while the second process takes place in the inner membrane of mitochondria in eukaryotes.
