Which of the following are correct about cellular respiration?
A. Cellular respiration is the breaking of C-C bonds of complex organic molecules by oxidation.
B. The entire cellular respiration takes place in Mitochondria.
C. Fermentation takes place under anaerobic condition in germinating seeds.
D. The fate of pyruvate formed during glycolysis depends on the type of organism also.
E. Water is formed during respiration as a result of O2 accepting electrons and getting reduced
Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
A. Cellular respiration is the breaking of C-C bonds of complex organic molecules by oxidation.
B. The entire cellular respiration takes place in Mitochondria.
C. Fermentation takes place under anaerobic condition in germinating seeds.
D. The fate of pyruvate formed during glycolysis depends on the type of organism also.
E. Water is formed during respiration as a result of O2 accepting electrons and getting reduced
Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
- A, C, D, E only
- A, B, E only
- A, B, C, E only
- B, C, D, E only
The Correct Option is A
Solution and Explanation
Cellular respiration involves the oxidation of complex organic molecules. Fermentation occurs under anaerobic conditions, and the fate of pyruvate depends on the organism. Water is formed when oxygen accepts electrons. The entire process of cellular respiration does not occur solely in mitochondria; glycolysis takes place in the cytoplasm.
Statements A, C, D, and E are correct.

- An oxygen cylinder of volume 30 litre has 18.20 moles of oxygen. After some oxygen is withdrawn from the cylinder, its gauge pressure drops to 11 atmospheric pressure at temperature \(27^\circ\)C. The mass of the oxygen withdrawn from the cylinder is nearly equal to: [Given, \(R = \frac{100}{12} \text{ J mol}^{-1} \text{K}^{-1}\), and molecular mass of \(O_2 = 32 \text{ g/mol}\), 1 atm pressure = \(1.01 \times 10^5 \text{ N/m}^2\)]
