ATPs less than C4 plants.
120. Answer (3)
Hint : The process through which electrons pass
from one carrier to another is called electron
transport system (ETS).
Sol. : In mitochondria, ETS is linked to ATP
synthesis (oxidative phosphorylation). Electron
carriers of ETS are present in inner mitochondrial
membrane.
121. Answer (1)
Hint : Fermentation is a kind of anaerobic
respiration, carried out primarily by fungi and
anaerobic bacteria.
Sol. : In fermentation, pyruvic acid is partially
oxidized in the presence of external electron donor
(reducing agent), NADH.
In fermentation, no new ATP or NADH molecules are
produced apart from those produced during
glycolysis.
122. Answer (2)
Hint : Succinyl CoA is an intermediate of Krebs
cycle, used in the biosynthesis of chlorophyll.
Sol. : Terminal electron acceptor of mitochondrial
ETS is O2.
Cofactor of pyruvic acid decarboxylase enzyme = Mg+2
Cofactor of lactic acid dehydrogenase enzyme = Zn+2.
123. Answer (3)
Hint : In human kidney cells, NADH molecules
produced in glycolysis enter the mitochondria via
malate-aspartate shuttle.
Sol. : In aerobic respiration, ATP produced by
oxidative phosphorylation is coupled with ETS.
By ETS and oxidative phosphorylation
1 NADH produces 3 ATPs
and 1 FADH2 produces 2 ATPs
Total NADH molecules produced in aerobic
respiration = 10 (30 ATPs)
Total FADH 2 molecules produced in aerobic
respiration = 2 (4 ATPs) so total ATP produced by
ETS and oxidative phosphorylation is 34.

114. Answer (3)
Hint : C 4 plants lack the wasteful process
responsible for loss of fixed CO2.
Sol. : In C 3 plants, when there is high
concentration of O2 in stroma, oxygenase activity of
RuBisCO leads to photorespiratory loss. On the
other hand C4 plants have mechanism to increase
the CO 2 concentration in comparison to O 2
concentration at the enzyme site, because of which
C 4 plants do not have photorespiration. Thus
productivity of C4 plant is better than C3 plants.
115. Answer (4)

pore eliminates nitrogenous waste. Wastes present
in alimentary canal are eliminated through anus.
Pseudocoelom, absence of segmentation and
presence of bilateral symmetry are features of
Aschelminthes.
164. Answer (2)
Hint: Identify a mollusc with scientific name
Dentalium.
Sol.: Tusk shell has a calcareous shell
(exoskeleton) while chitinous exoskeleton is a feature
of arthropods.

Sol.: Regeneration is a prominent feature of Porifera
Coelenterata, Platyhelminthes and Echinoderms.
168. Answer (2)
Hint: This structure is composed of cellulose in
plants.
Sol.: Animal cells lack a cell wall. All animals are
14/15
Test - 4 (Code F) (Hints and Solutions)
heterotrophs and show division of labour. Poriferans
lack nervous system.
