Assertion (A): | It is better to consider the respiratory pathway as an amphibolic pathway rather than as a catabolic one. |
Reason (R): | The respiratory pathway is involved in both anabolism and catabolism. |
1. | Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) is the correct explanation of (A). |
2. | Both (A) and (R) are True but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A). |
3. | (A) is True but (R) is False. |
4. | Both (A) and (R) are False. |

1. PGAL
2. PEP
3. 1, 3 – BPG
4. 2 – PG
Statement I: | In aerobic cellular respiration, the complete oxidation of pyruvate takes place in the cytoplasm. |

1. | Statement I is incorrect; Statement II is incorrect |
2. | Statement I is incorrect; Statement II is correct |
3. | Statement I is correct; Statement II is incorrect |
4. | Statement I is correct; Statement II is correct |
