Where do metabolism cell reactions take place?

  1. A
    vacuoles
  2. B
    mitochondria
  3. C
    nucleus
  4. D
    centrioles

Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

Metabolic reactions within a cell take place in different compartments depending on the specific pathway. However, among the given choices, the mitochondria are the critical site for vital metabolic processes such as cellular respiration (including the Krebs cycle and the electron transport chain), which generates energy in the form of ATP. The cytoplasm is another major site for metabolism (like glycolysis).
