Plants can get along without respiratory organs. What may be the reason/s for this?
I. Each plant part takes care of its own gas exchange needs
II. Plants do not present great demands for gas exchange
1. Both I and II | 2. Only I |
3. Only II | 4. Neither I nor II |

In Section 12.1, it is written that most cells of a plant have at least a part of their surface in contact with air. The arguments in favor of this statement include all except:
1. Flattened leaves
2. Closely packed parenchyma in most regions
3. Presence of lenticels
4. Mostly dead cells in the interior

Fermentation | Aerobic respiration | |
I: | Partial breakdown of glucose | Complete breakdown of glucose |
II: | Net gain of only two molecules of ATP beginning with one molecule of glucose | Net gain of many more molecules of ATP beginning with one molecule of glucose |
III: | NADH is oxidised to NAD+ slowly | NADH is oxidised to NAD+ vigorously |
1. | Only I and II | 2. | Only I and III |
3. | Only II and III | 4. | I, II and III |

A | B | C | |
1. | Carbon dioxide and Water | Lactate | Ethanol and Carbon dioxide |
2. | Only Carbon dioxide | Lactate and Carbon dioxide | Ethanol and Carbon dioxide |
3. | Carbon dioxide and Water | Lactate and Carbon dioxide | Ethanol |
4. | Ethanol and Carbon dioxide | Lactate | Carbon dioxide and Water |
Consider the two statements:
Statement I: | Inside a cell, the glucose molecule is oxidised not in one step but in several small steps. |
Statement II: | Some steps will be just large enough such that energy liberated can be coupled to ATP synthesis. |
1. | Both Statement I and Statement II are correct and Statement II explains Statement I |
2. | Both Statement I and Statement II are correct but Statement II does not explain Statement I |
3. | Statement I is correct but Statement II is incorrect |
4. | Statement I is incorrect but Statement II is correct |
