Consider the two statements:
Statement I: | Inside a cell, the glucose molecule is oxidised not in one step but in several small steps. |
Statement II: | Some steps will be just large enough such that energy liberated can be coupled to ATP synthesis. |
1. | Both Statement I and Statement II are correct and Statement II explains Statement I |
2. | Both Statement I and Statement II are correct but Statement II does not explain Statement I |
3. | Statement I is correct but Statement II is incorrect |
4. | Statement I is incorrect but Statement II is correct |
1. | during conversion of 1,3 biphosphoglyceric acid to 3-phosphoglyceric acid and during conversion of phosphoenolpuruvate to pyruvic acid |
2. | during conversion of glucose to glucose-6-phospate and during conversion of fructose-6-phosphate to fructose – 1,6- biphosphate |
3. | during conversion of glucose to glucose-6-phospate and during conversion of glucose-6-phosphate to fructose-6- phosphate |
4. | during conversion of 3-phosphoglyceric acid to 2-phosphoglycerate and during conversion of 2-phosphoglycerate to phosphoenolpuruvate |
The net gain of number of ATP molecules during glycolysis will be:
1. 2 | 2. 4 |
3. 6 | 4. 8 |
1. | during conversion of 1,3 biphosphoglyceric acid to 3-phosphoglyceric acid |
2. | during conversion of glyceraldehyde -3-phosphate to 1,3 biphosphoglyceric acid |
3. | during conversion of glucose to glucose-6-phospate |
4. | during conversion of 3-phosphoglyceric acid to 2-phosphoglycerate |
Consider the given statements:
Statement I: | In alcohol fermentation in yeast, pyruvic acid decarboxylase and alcohol dehydrogenase convert pyruvic acid to carbon dioxide and ethanol. |
Statement II: | In lactic acid fermentation, lactate dehydrogenase reduces pyruvic acid to lactic acid and carbon dioxide in muscle cells during exercise. |
1. | Both Statement I and Statement II are correct |
2. | Both Statement I and Statement II are incorrect |
3. | Statement I is correct but Statement II is incorrect |
4. | Statement I is incorrect but Statement II is correct |
1. | Eight molecules of NADH + H+ |

1. | Only I and II | 2. | Only I and III |
3. | Only II and III | 4. | I, II and III |
I: | Transport of gases from the respiratory surface to the cells |
II: | Breakdown of food material within the cell to release energy |

1. | Only I and II | 2. | Only I and III |
3. | Only II and III | 4. | I, II and III |
Identify the incorrectly matched pair:
Component of ETC | Name | |
