Where in the cell does Krebs cycle occur?
Answered
In eukaryotic cells, the Krebs cycle occurs in the mitochondrial matrix, a gel-like compartment enclosed by the inner mitochondrial membrane. This location houses all necessary enzymes and cofactors for the cycle’s operation. In prokaryotic cells, which lack mitochondria, the Krebs cycle occurs in the cytoplasm.
