Which organell is the major site for aerobic energy production in eukaryotic cells?

• Ribosome

• Nucleus

• smooth ER

• mitochondria

NGSS.HS-LS2-5

Where are mitochondria most abundant? (two answers)

• liver cells

• pancreatic cells

• kidney cells

• muscle cells

How do RBC's get their energy?

• glycolysis

• Citric acid cycle

• both glycolysis and citric acid cycle

Answer explanation

RBC's do not have mitochondria so they cannot do the citric acid cycle. ONLY GLYCOLYSIS
