The diagram shows a mitochondrion.
Identify the parts labelled A and B.
The stages of respiration take part in different locations in a cell as shown in the table below.
Complete the missing parts of the table.
Stage of respiration | Location in cell |

Link Reaction | |
Krebs cycle | Matrix of mitochondria |
Oxidative phosphorylation |
Mitochondria are highly adapted to carry out respiration. One adaptation is a highly folded inner membrane, the cristae.
Describe how the folding of a membrane is an adaptation of an organelle such as the mitochondria.
Anaerobic respiration also occurs in cells, but not in the mitochondria.
State the names of the two types of anaerobic respiration. One type occurs in animal cells and the other type occurs in yeast cells.
