Respiration MCQ Questions Full Syllabus Biology with Answers
IMPORTANT POINTS
• Important of Respiration in living organisms.
The breakdown of C-C bonds of complex compounds through oxidation with in cell releasing considerable amount of energy is called respiration.
• Glycolysis : The breakdown of glucose to pyruyic acid is called glycolysis. This process occurs in the cytoplasm of cells.
• There are three major ways in which different cell handle pyruyic acid these are lactic acid fermentation, alcoholic fermentation and aerobic respiration.
• Aerobic respiration includes krebs cycle and oxidative phosphorylation in addition to glycolysis.
• All reaction of krebs cycle are carried out in the matrix of mitochondria and ETS (oxidative phosphorylation) carried out on inner membrance of mitochondria.
• Respiratory pathway is involved in both anabolic and catabolic processes and hence it is also known as an amphibolic pathway rather then as a catabolic one.
• During aerobic respiration O2 is consumed and CO2 is released. The ratio of CO2 to the O2 consumed during respiration is called Respiratory Quotient (RQ)
For the given options select the correct options (a, b, c, d) each carries one mark.
