In aerobic cellular respiration:
| 1. | all oxygen in water given off comes from the water used in the process |
| 2. | all oxygen in water given off comes from the glucose dismantled in the process |
| 3. | all oxygen in water given off comes from the oxygen gas acquired from the air during breathing |
| 4. | oxygen in water given off comes from both the water used in the process and the glucose dismantled in the process |

Based on the figures given below, calculate the efficiency of the process of aerobic cellular respiration in a eukaryotic cell:
| I. | The total yield is 32 ATP molecules |
| II. | Complete oxidation of a mole of glucose releases 686 kcal or energy under standard conditions. |
| III. | Phosphorylation of ADP to form ATP stores at least 7.3 kcal per mole of ATP |
| 1. | 3.5 % | 2. | 32 % |

When oxygen is not available to a cell, NADH formed during glycolysis:
| 1. | does not undergo any change as there is no need for the cell to regenerate NAD+ |
| 2. | passes electrons to the electron transport system |
| 3. | passes hydrogen atoms to pyruvic acid |
| 4. | passes electrons and hydrogen atoms to acetyl coA |

Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion (A) and the other is labelled as Reason (R):
In the light of the above statements choose the correct answer from the options given below:
| Assertion (A): | The maximum concentration of alcohol in beverages that are naturally fermented with yeast is about 13%. |
| Reason (R): | In alcohol fermentation, yeast converts pyruvic acid to ethanol and carbon dioxide. |
| 1. | Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) is the correct explanation of (A). |

The ratio of the volume of CO2 evolved to the volume of O2 consumed in respiration is called as the respiratory quotient [RQ]. Calculate RQ when albumin is used as a respiratory substrate[see the given equation]:
C77H112N2O22S + 77O2 → 63 CO2 + 38 H2O + SO2 + 9 CO(NH2)2
C77H112N2O22S + 77O2 → 63 CO2 + 38 H2O + SO2 + 9 CO(NH2)2
