Answer:
So that oxidation of pyruvate can take place in mitochondria.
Explanation:
Pyruvates is produced in the glycolysis process which occurs in the cytoplasm. So pyruvate is produced in the cytoplasm of the cell. Pyruvate is produced by partial oxidation of glucose and to be fully oxidized it has to enter in the mitochondria.
So after entering the mitochondria the pyruvate first converts into acetyl CoA than this acetyl CoA enters in the citric acid cycle and fully oxidized into CO2. This oxidation generated NADP and FADH2 which provide reducing power during oxidative phosphorylation.
The best answer is C

The bare soil surface type affects the amount of runoff because it has
no other stopping mechanism that prevents runoff to happen. Just like in the
use of pesticide, it is
harmful to human agriculture because it contains an antifreezing chemical
(present in transportation vehicles). When the chemical seeps into the soil, it
will create a runoff and can seep into the groundwater causing pollution.
