The number of ATP molecules synthesized from oxidation of one molecule of NADH and one molecule of are respectively:
| 1. | 3 and 2 | 2. | 2 and 3 |
| 3. | 1 and 1 | 4. | 2 and 1 |
Oxygen drives the process of ATP production via ETS. The best explanation for this would be that oxygen:
| 1. | is needed at the end of the aerobic respiration |
| 2. | is the terminal electron donor |
| 3. | is not required in the glycolytic pathway |
| 4. | acts as the final hydrogen acceptor |
According to NCERT textbook, what is the number of ATP molecules that can be regarded as a net gain during aerobic respiration of one molecule of glucose?
| 1. 2 | 2. 30 |
| 3. 36 | 4. 38 |
What is the number of ATP molecules produced when pyruvate is converted to lactate by fermentation?
| 1. 0 | 2. 2 |
| 3. 4 | 4. 38 |
If fatty acids were to enter the respiratory pathway, they must be converted to a molecule with:
| 1. | Two carbons | 2. | Three carbons |
| 3. | Five carbons | 4. | Six carbons |
The correct descending order of the RQ value, when carbohydrates, proteins and fats are used as respiratory substrate would be:
1. Protein ˃ Fats ˃ Carbohydrates
2. Protein ˃ Carbohydrates ˃ Fats
3. Carbohydrates ˃ Protein ˃ Fats
4. Fats ˃ Carbohydrates ˃ Protein
Phosphorylation of glucose during glycolysis is catalysed by
| 1. Phosphoglucomutase | 2. Phosphoglucoisomerase |
| 3. Hexokinase | 4. Phosphorylase |
Pyruvic acid, the key product of glycolysis can have many metabolic fates. Under aerobic condition, it forms
| 1. | Lactic acid | 2. | CO2 + H2O |
| 3. | Acetyl CoA + CO2 | 4. | Ethanol + CO2 |
What is the end product of glycolysis?
| 1. NADH | 2. ATP |
| 3. G3P | 4. Pyruvate |
The outputs of the Krebs cycle do not include:
| 1. NADP | 2. |
| 3. ATP | 4. |
