15. Oxidation of glucose molecule occurs in
A) Cytoplasm, Mitochondria
B) Cytoplasm, Nucelus
C) Mitochondria, Chloroplast
D) Mitchondria, Golgicomplex​

Answer 1

Answer:

Glucose is oxidized into 2 molecules of pyruvic acid in an exergonic reaction. Most of the energy is conserved in the high-energy electrons of NADH and in the phosphate bonds of ATP. The Krebs cycle completes the oxidation of organic molecules. It releases the energy that is stored in the 2 molecules of pyruvate.
