What are the structures in cytoplasm containing the enzymes of cellular respiration?

Cellular respiration occurs in the mitochondria of the cells. This organelle contains all the components required for cellular respiration. The enzymes involved in this pathway would be present here. Actually this orgnelle only contains the enzymes invovled in the last two parts of respiration the TCA cycle and oxidative phosphorylation. The enzymes invovled in the TCA cycle are free floating in the cytoplasm like matrix of the mitochondria whereas the enzymes involved in oxidative phosphorylation are bound on the folds of mitochondrial membrane called the cristae. However the first part of cellular respiration is glycolysis, the splitting og 6C glucose into two 3C molecules. This step uses enzymes that are found outside of the mitochondrion instead in the cytoplasm of the cell and so the net ATP gained from each NAD here is only 2 as energy is required to get it across the mitochondrial membrane.

What are the different cellular structures primarily responsible for photosynthesis and respiration?
for photosynthesis the structures are chloroplast,mitochondria, ribosomes, and the vacuole.And for cellular it is glucose,cytoplasm, and mitochondria.but what is Recall the substances needed for respiration
Where does cellular respiration occur and in what organelle?
Cellular respiration starts in the cytoplasm of the cell, and then enters the mitochondria.
What organella performs cellular respiration?
the initial part of cellular respiration, that is glycolysis, occur in cytoplasm. the remaining part of cellular respiration takes place in mitochondria.
What cellpart performs cellular respiration?
Cytoplasm and mitochondria
Which steps of cellular respiration occur in the cytoplasm?
glycolysis

Cellular respiration begins with?
Cellular respiration begins with glycolysis in the cytoplasm of the cell.
What is the first step of cellular respiration that takes place in the cytoplasm?
Glycolysis or "Splitting of sugar", has to happen in the cell's cytoplasm before cellular respiration can occur. I hope this helps!
In what organelle is cellular respiration completed?
Cellular respiration occurs in the mitochondria and the cytoplasm. Glycolysis occurs in the cytoplasm, but the rest of the cycle occurs in the mitochondria.
Where does cellular respiration occur and in what organelle?
Cellular respiration starts in the cytoplasm of the cell, and then enters the mitochondria.
What are the reactions that occur in cellular respiration?
in the cytoplasm
What organelles are used in order to break down food for ATP?
You are referring to the process of cellular respiration. Anaerobic cellular respiration takes place in the cytoplasm. Aerobic cellular respiration starts in the cytoplasm, and is completed in the mitochondria.
Where is the process of cellular respiration carried out in prokaryotes?
Aerobic respiration in measosomes.Anerobic respiration in cytoplasm.
What is the Respiration happens in organelle?
Aerobic cellular respiration occurs in the mitochondria. Anaerobic cellular respiration occurs in the cytoplasm.
What organella performs cellular respiration?
