Substrate level phosphorylation in aerobic respiration

a
Does not occur in cytosol
b
Occurs only in mitochondrial matrix
c
Occurs when succinyl CoA is converted to succinic acid
d
Occurs because of proton gradient developed during electron transport

detailed solution

Correct option is C

Substrate level phosphorylation in aerobic respiration occurs when succinyl CoA is converted to succinic acid a molecule of GTP is synthesised.It can also occur during glycolysis in the cytosol of the cell. Oxidative phosphorylation occurs because of proton gradient developed during electron transport.
