Answer 1

The true statement is: Cellular respiration takes place in the cytoplasm and mitochondria.

Cellular respiration consists of a series of metabolic processes that convert glucose and oxygen into energy, carbon dioxide, and water. The initial stages of cellular respiration (glycolysis) occur in the cytoplasm, while the later stages (Krebs cycle and oxidative phosphorylation) occur in the mitochondria. Chloroplasts are involved in photosynthesis, not cellular respiration.
