Background. In line with the further thriving demand for downstream derivatives of allyl alcohol, cumene and vinyl acetate monomer worldwide, Chang Chun Group decide to expand the operation of allyl alcohol, cumene and vinyl acetate monomer in Singapore.
This is also called the Krebs cycle or the tricarboxylic acid cycle. When oxygen is present, acetyl-CoA is produced from the pyruvate molecules created from glycolysis. When oxygen is present, the mitochondria will undergo aerobic respiration which leads to the Krebs cycle.
Quick Answer. The primary function of the mitochondria is to produce ATP, the molecule that the cell uses for energy when carrying out essential functions. The process by which glucose is converted to ATP in the mitochondria is known as cellular respiration and occurs in mitochondria of both plant and animal cells.
