In which organelle do the reactions of the Krebs cycle take place?

Think it through first, then pick an option.

  1. a Cell cavity
  2. b Golgi body
  3. c Ribosome
  4. d Mitochondrion
Answer and explanation

Correct answer: d Mitochondrion

All the reactions of the Krebs cycle take place in the mitochondrion.

Why the other options are wrong

  • a Cell cavity: The cell cavity is not the site of the Krebs cycle.
  • b Golgi body: The Golgi body handles secretion and transport; the Krebs cycle is not there.
  • c Ribosome: Ribosomes make protein; the Krebs cycle is not there.
