Respiration in PlantsHard
Question
The energy-releasing process in which the substrate is oxidized with put an external electron acceptor is called
Options
A.fermentation
B.photorespiration
C.aerobic respiration
D.glycolysis
Solution
Glycolysis is the first stage of breakdown of glucose in cytoplasm of cell without using oxygen (electron acceptor ). It is a stepwise process in which one molecule of glucose breaks into two molecules of pyruvic acid and nrt gin of energy is 2 ATP and 2NADH2 molecules.
The stepwise breakdown of respiratory substrates to CO2 and H2O in presence of oxyfen is referred as aerobic respiration. It is a catabolic process and generates large amount of form ATP.
Anaerobic respiation in micro-organisms is called fermentation. Alcoholic fermentation is breakdown of glucose into ethyl alcohol and CO2 in presence of enzymes of micro-organisms Photorespiration is light induced oxidation of photosynthetic intermediates with the help of oxygen without releasing energy.
