The mitochondria is responsible for respiration, but glycolysis occurs in the cytoplasm of the cell. The Krebs cycle and electron transport both occur in the mitochondria of t â¦ he cell. Cellular aerobic respiration occurs within the mitochondria. Cellular respiration occurs in the mitochondria of a cell.
Aerobic respiration does occur in the cell. However, more specifically, aerobic respiration occurs in the MITOCHONDRIAL MATRIX or on the inside of the inner membrane of mitochondria (the powerhouse of the cell). In contrast, anaerobic respiration (without O2) strictly occurs in the cytoplasm of the cell (a process called GLYCOLYSIS).
