Assertion (A): | When carbohydrates are used as substrate and are completely oxidised, the RQ will be 1. |
Reason (R): | The respiratory quotient depends upon the type of respiratory substrate used during respiration. |
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. | Both (A) and (R) are False |
1. | they are converted into glucose |
2. | they enter their own pathways that are separate from the glucose metabolic pathways |
3. | they are degraded completely into atoms before entering a pathway |
4. | they are modified so that they can enter the glucose metabolic pathways |
Assertion (A): | When carbohydrates are used as substrate and are completely oxidised, the RQ will be 1. |
Reason (R): | When carbohydrates are used as substrate and are completely oxidised, equal amounts of CO2 and O2 are evolved and consumed, respectively. |
