NEET · BiologyEasy
Which of the following is the primary site of glycolysis in a plant cell?
- A.Mitochondrial matrix
- B.Cytoplasm
- C.Chloroplast stroma
- D.Endoplasmic reticulum
Show correct answer & step-by-step solution
Correct answer: B — Cytoplasm
Solution
- Glycolysis is the initial stage of cellular respiration.
- This process involves the breakdown of glucose into pyruvate.
- The enzymes required for this pathway are located in the cytosol.
- Hence the answer is (B).
