Options
- AA-IV, B-II, C-I, D-III
- BA-II, B-III, C-IV, D-I
- CA-III, B-I, C-IV, D-II
- DA-I, B-IV, C-III, D-II
Correct answer
C. A-III, B-I, C-IV, D-II
Step-by-step solution
Glycolysis is the first step of cellular respiration and occurs in the cytoplasm of the cell. The Electron Transport System (ETS) is located in the inner mitochondrial membrane. During ETS, protons are pumped from the mitochondrial matrix to the intermembrane space, leading to the accumulation of protons in the intermembrane space. The Krebs' cycle (TCA cycle) takes place in the mitochondrial matrix. Therefore, the correct matching is A-III, B-I, C-IV, D-II. Answer: A-III, B-I, C-IV, D-II
