NEETBotanyRespiration in Plants
Read the following statements and choose the correct option: 1. In Gylcolysis, glucose undergoes partial oxidation to form two molecules of pyruvic acid. 2. 2 molecules of ATP is released in the last step of glycolysis 3. Glycolysis occurs in the cytoplasm of the cell and is present in all living organisms. 4. In Glycolysis, glucose undergoes partial oxidation to form four molecules of pyruvic acid.
Options
- AOnly 1 and 3 are incorrect
- BOnly 1 and 3 are correct
- CAll are incorrect
- DOnly 4 is incorrect
Correct answer
D. Only 4 is incorrect
Step-by-step solution
The scheme of Glycolysis was given by Gustav Embden, Otto Meyerhof, and J. Parnas and is referred to as the EMP pathway. In anaerobic organisms, glycolysis is the only process in respiration. Glycolysis occurs in the cytoplasm of the cell and is present in all living organisms. In Glycolysis, glucose undergoes partial oxidation to form two molecules of pyruvic acid.
