Yes, cellular respiration involves the mitochondria

Yes. Most of the cellular respiration takes place in mitochondria and the mitochondria membrane. That is probably why the mitochondria are known as the "Powerhouse" of the cell.

Where is photosynthesis and cellular respiration take place?

Photosynthesis occurs in the chloroplast. During photosynthesis, carbon dioxide, water, and light energy is turned into glucose and oxygen. Cellular respiration occurs in the mitochondria. During cellular respiration, glucose and oxygen and turned into carbon dioxide, water, and energy. As you can see, the are both really a big cycle.


Where are NADH and FAHD from cellular respiration produced?

NADH is produced in the mitochondria during the citric acid cycle and the electron transport chain of cellular respiration. FADH2 is also produced in the mitochondria during the citric acid cycle.


What is the main function of mitochondria during cellular respiration?

It produces molecules of ATP.


What happens to the atmosphere during cellular respiration?

oxygen is added to the atmosphere when plants take in carbon dioxide during cellular respiration


What chemical reaction that occurs during mitochondria?

I think you are asking about the respiration reaction Glucose + oxygen ---> carbon dioxide + water C6H1206 + 6 O2 ---> 6 CO2 + 6 H2O (balanced equation)


What do cells use to breakdown food?

Mitochondria. There is a complex process called cellular respiration during which the mitochondria breaks down the food.


What organelle produces most of the energy that is released during respiration?

The last two phases of cellular respiration, the citric acid cycle and the electron transport chain, take place in the mitochondria. This is the organelle where most of the ATP (energy) from respiration is released.


What releases energy for a eukaryotic cell?

In a eukaryotic cell, energy is released through the process of cellular respiration, which usually takes place in the mitochondria. During cellular respiration, glucose is broken down in the presence of oxygen to produce ATP, the cell's main energy currency.


Is chlorophyll involved when cellular respiration happens?

No, chlorophyll is not directly involved in cellular respiration. Chlorophyll is primarily responsible for capturing light energy during photosynthesis in plants. Cellular respiration, on the other hand, is the process by which cells break down glucose to produce ATP, the energy currency of the cell.


Where in the cell is ATP generated?

ATP is mainly generated in the mitochondria through the process of cellular respiration. During cellular respiration, glucose is broken down in the presence of oxygen to produce ATP through a series of reactions in the electron transport chain and oxidative phosphorylation. Some ATP is also generated in the cytoplasm through glycolysis.


Combines with glucose during respiration?

Glucose combines with oxygen during respiration to produce energy in the form of ATP. This process, known as cellular respiration, occurs in the mitochondria of cells and is essential for providing energy for cellular functions.
