Question

Metabolic reactions take place-

• A. In isolated cell-free systems
• B. In living systems
• C. Both (1) and (2)
• D. Either (1) or (2)

Answer 1

The correct option is C Both (1) and (2)

Metabolic reactions are those chemical reactions through which a complex substance break into smaller molecules and produces the energy which helps in completing the life cycle of an organism. Metabolic reactions can take place in a living system e.g. digestion and respiration in the living organism. metabolic reactions also take place in an isolated cell-free system e.g. reactions take place in the test tube

So, the correct option is 'Both 1 and 2'.
