| Assertion (A): | It is possible to make calculations of the net gain of ATP for every glucose molecule oxidised; but in reality this can remain only a theoretical exercise. |
| Reason (R): | These calculations can be made only on certain assumptions that are not really valid in a living system. |
| 1. | Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) correctly explains the (A) |
| 2. | Both (A) and (R) are True but (R) is not the correct explanation of the (A) |
| 3. | (A) is True but (R) is False |
| 4. | (A) is False but (R) is True |
| Assertion (A): | It is better to consider the respiratory pathway as an amphibolic pathway rather than only as a catabolic one. |
| Reason (R): | Breaking down processes within the living organism is catabolism, and synthesis is anabolism. |
| 1. | Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) correctly explains (A) |
| 2. | Both (A) and (R) are True but (R) does not correctly explains (A) |
| 3. | (A) is True but (R) is False |
| 4. | (A) is False but (R) is True |
| I: | ATP is utilised at two steps: first in the conversion of glucose into glucose 6-phosphate and second in the conversion of fructose 6-phosphate to fructose 1, 6-bisphosphate. |
| II: | ATP is produced at two steps: first in the conversion of BPGA to 3-phosphoglyceric acid (PGA), and second during the conversion of PEP to pyruvic acid. |
