There is one step in glycolysis where NADH + H+ is formed from NAD+ ; this is when:
1. The fructose 1, 6-bisphosphate is split into dihydroxyacetone phosphate and 3-phosphoglyceraldehyde (PGAL).
2. 3-phosphoglyceraldehyde (PGAL) is converted to 1, 3-bisphosphoglycerate (BPGA).
3. BPGA is converted to 3-phosphoglyceric acid (PGA).
4. Glucose and fructose are phosphorylated to give rise to glucose-6- phosphate.

Consider the given two statements:
Assertion (A): Naturally fermented alcoholic beverages never exceed 13% alcohol concentration.
Reason (R): Yeasts die when the concentration of alcohol reaches around 13%, as alcohol becomes toxic to them.
Options:
1. Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) is the correct explanation of (A)
2. Both (A) and (R) are True but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A)
3. (A) is True but (R) is False
4. (A) is False but (R) is True

Which of the following represents the correct sequence of intermediates formed during one turn of the Krebs cycle, starting with the combination of acetyl CoA and OAA?
1. Oxaloacetic acid → Malic acid → Fumaric acid → Succinic acid → Succinyl CoA → α-ketoglutaric acid → Isocitric acid → Citric acid
2. Citric acid → α-ketoglutaric acid → Isocitric acid → Succinic acid → Succinyl CoA → Malic acid → Fumaric acid → Oxaloacetic acid
3. Acetyl CoA → Pyruvate → Citric acid → Malic acid → Oxaloacetic acid
4. Citric acid → Isocitric acid → α-ketoglutaric acid → Succinyl CoA → Succinic acid → Fumaric acid → Malic acid → Oxaloacetic acid

Oxidative phosphorylation in respiration differs from photophosphorylation in photosynthesis because:
1. It occurs in the cytoplasm instead of organelles.
2. It does not involve a proton gradient for ATP synthesis.
3. It directly synthesizes ATP without involving any electron transport chain.
4. It uses oxidation-reduction energy instead of light energy to create a proton gradient.
