Because the cytoplasm region of the cell doesn't contain oxygen therefore it is suitable for anaerobic respiration.

Does photosynthesis take place in the mitochondria?
No. In a eukaryote cell photosynthesis will only take place in chloroplasts, which are organellesin the cytoplasm.
Where in the cell do the two stages of respiration occur?
The first stage of cellular respiration, glycolysis, occurs in the cytoplasm. All subsequent stages occur in the mitochondria.
Where does the most reactions of aerobic cellular respiration occur?
Glycolysis, the first stage of aerobic respiration, occurs in a cell's cytoplasm. The second stage (acetyl-CoA formation and the Krebs cycle) and the third stage (electron transfer phosphorylation) occur inside a cell's mitochondria. They occur at the inner mitochondrial membrane, which is highly folded. Therefore, most of the reactions of aerobic cellular respiration occur inside the mitochondria of a cell.
Why would you not expect to find mitochondria in anaerobic organisms?
Because mitochondria are used for oxidative phosphorylation, which doesn't occur in anaerobic respiration
is mitochondria the site of anaerobic respiration?
Yes. Cell respiration has 3 parts: glycolysis, Krebs cycle and oxidative phosphorylation (the electron transport chain). Glycolysis occurs in the cytoplasm and the Krebs cycle/ox-phos occur in the mitochondria.

Where in the cell does anaerobic respiration occur?
In the cytosol...the watery part of the cytoplasm.

Where does cellular respiration occur and in what organelle?
Cellular respiration starts in the cytoplasm of the cell, and then enters the mitochondria.
is mitochondria the site of anaerobic respiration?
Yes. Cell respiration has 3 parts: glycolysis, Krebs cycle and oxidative phosphorylation (the electron transport chain). Glycolysis occurs in the cytoplasm and the Krebs cycle/ox-phos occur in the mitochondria.
The anaerobic phase of respiration occurs primarily in mitochondria?
Cellular respiration takes place in both the cytoplasm of the cell and in the mitochondria. Glycolysis and pyruvate decarboxylation occur in the cytoplasm while the Kreb's cycle and oxidative phosphorylation occur in the mitochondrial matrix and membrane, respectively.
Where does respiration occur inside the cell?
There are two sites. They are cytoplasm and mitochondria
Where in the cell does the second stage of respiration?
The second stage of cellular respiration, after glycolysis, occurs in the mitochondria. All of the stages of cellular respiration (after glycolysis in the cytoplasm) occur in the mitochondria.
What happens in a mitochondria?
Aerobic respiration occurs in mitochondria, which produces ATP.
