Question

Match List-I with List-II:

List-I A. Oxidative decarboxylation B. Glycolysis C. Oxidative phosphorylation D. Tricarboxylic acid cycle

List-II I. Citrate synthase II. Pyruvate dehydrogenase III. Electron transport system IV. EMP pathway

A

A-II, B-IV, C-III, D-I

B

A-III, B-IV, C-II, D-I

C

A-II, B-I, C-III, D-IV

D

A-IV, B-III, C-I, D-II

Step-by-Step Solution

:

  • Oxidative decarboxylation of pyruvate involves the enzyme Pyruvate dehydrogenase .
  • Glycolysis is often referred to as the EMP pathway (Embden-Meyerhof-Parnas pathway) .
  • Oxidative phosphorylation is the synthesis of ATP occurring through the Electron transport system .
  • The Tricarboxylic acid cycle starts with a reaction catalysed by the enzyme Citrate synthase .

Exam Context & Concepts Covered

This question aligns with the NEET BIOLOGY syllabus, specifically targeting concepts from Respiration in Plants. Mastering this topic is crucial for scoring well in the upcoming medical entrance examinations. Solving conceptually related problems will help you understand the nuances of these concepts and improve your problem-solving speed.
