Important Questions on Aerobic Respiration in Plants
During glycolysis in cytoplasm, the decarboxylation reactions -----------------.

Study the given figure and select the incorrect option regarding this.

Oxidative phosphorylation is carried out by electron transport chain (ETC) present in the mitochondria of aerobes. The NADH or FADH2 produced in TCA (Kreb's) cycle transfers their electron to the ETC to finally reduce . Based on this information, the correct option is

Mitochondrial inner membrane is permeable to NADH.

Shuttle system transfers electrons from the hydrogens of cytoplasmic NADH to the mitochondrial electron carriers across the mitochondrial membrane.

The electrons created during _____ are used for oxidative phosphorylation. (gluconeogenesis/ glycolysis)

_____ shuttle is an essential system used by mitochondria, that allows electrons to move across the impermeable membrane between the cytosol and the mitochondrial matrix. (Malate/ Glycerol)
