Answer:

Eukaryotic ATP production usually takes place in the mitochondria of the cell.

Step-by-step explanation:

This ATP production by the mitochondria is done by the process of respiration, which in essence is the use of oxygen in a process which generates energy. Most of the ATP of a eukaryotic organism is made in the mitochondria during the last phase of cellular respiration that is called the electron transport chain (ETC). A mitochondrion is an organelle within a eukaryotic cell.
