Question

Select the correct option:

Consider the following statements with respect to respiration.
(i) Glycolysis occurs in the cytoplasm of the cell.
(ii) Aerobic respiration takes place within the mitochondria.
(iii) Electron transport system is present in the outer mitochondrial membrane.
(iv) $C_{51}{H}_{98}{O}_6$ is the chemical formula of tripalmitin, a fatty acid.
(v) Respiratory quotient$=\frac{Volumeof{O}_{2}evolved}{Volumeof{CO}_{2}consumed}$
of the above statements

• A. (i), (ii) and (iv) are correct
• B. (ii), (iii) and (iv) are correct
• C. (iii), (iv) and (v) are correct
• D. (ii), (iv) and (v) are correct

Answer 1

Answer: (A)

(i), (ii) and (iv) are correct

The electron transport system is present in the inner mitochondrial membrane. Respiratory quotient(RQ) is the ratio of the volume of CO2.

So the correct option is A.
CO2.
