During the process of respiration,
Open in App
Solution
The correct option is B Heat is evolved.
Respiration is a biological process that occurs in living cells. It is the slow oxidation of organic substances (glucose) that results in the step-wise release of heat in the form of energy. The heat evolved from this process is step-wise, hence it does not harm the cells and organelles. The heat evolved is used in two ways. It is either made it available to the cells or is stored as chemical energy in the form of ATP. The respiration reactions are catalyzed by enzymes. So, the correct option is B.
