hey Im Allayna The answer is mitochondria ,here is why,

Complete oxidation of glucose finishes in the citric acid cycle; after the two turns per starting glucose, all of the original 6 carbons in glucose have been removed in the fully oxidized state, as CO2 (i.e., through decarboxylations). The citric acid cycle occurs within mitochondria

▪▪▪▪The complete aerobic oxidation of glucose is coupled to the synthesis of as many as 36 molecules of ATP:

Glycolysis, the initial stage of glucose metabolism, takes place in the cytosol and does not involve molecular O2. It produces a small amount of ATP and the three-carbon compound pyruvate. In aerobic cells, pyruvate formed in glycolysis is transported into the mitochondria, where it is oxidized by O2 to CO2. Via chemiosmotic coupling, the oxidation of pyruvate in the mitochondria generates the bulk of the ATP produced during the conversion of glucose to CO2. ▪▪▪▪
