Best Answer
  • In the cytoplasm (substrate phosphorylation through glycolysis)
  • In the mitochondrial matrix (substrate phosphorylation through citric acid cycle)
  • In the inner mitochondrial membrane (oxidative phosphorylation through electron transport chain)
  • In the thylakoid membranes of chloroplasts (photophosphorylation through electron transport chain.
