Question

After glycolysis happens in the cytoplasm, where do the pyruvate molecules that were made from the food go for the next step in the cellular respiration process?
The nucleus
The Golgi Apparatus
They Remain in the Cytoplasm
The Mitochondria

Answer 1

Answer:

Mitochondria

Explanation:

Pyruvic acid enters the mitochondria where in the presence of oxygen it is converted into acetyl coenzyme A. Acetyl coenzyme A joins the Krebs cycle in which it is broken down to carbon dioxide, water and energy which is used to produce ATP. ATP is a complex organic molecule.
