Solution
The correct option is B Man.
Respiration is a catabolic energy release process in which reduced substrates are broken down. The respiration can be aerobic or anaerobic. The process of glycolysis is common to aerobic and anaerobic respiration. It is a cytosolic process. After glycolysis, in aerobic respiration, Krebs cycle occurs in the mitochondrial matrix, followed by oxidation of reduced coenzymes through electron transport chain in the inner mitochondrial membrane. Krebs cycle and electron transport chain do not play a role in anaerobic respiration. Mitochondria is absent in prokaryotes like E. coli. Hence, prokaryotes like E. coli cannot carry out aerobic respiration.
