Botany-Respiratory Quotient

NEET Botany Respiratory Quotient Match the Following Question

Type: Match the Following-match the column-Medium-Class 11

Match Column-I with Column-II.

Column-I Column-II (a) RQ = 1 (i) Protein oxidation (b) RQ < 1 (ii) Carbohydrate oxidation (c) RQ > 1 (iii) Lipid oxidation (d) RQ = 0.7 (iv) Anaerobic respiration

Choose the correct matching:

A

a-ii, b-iv, c-i, d-iii

B

a-ii, b-iii, c-i, d-iv

C

a-i, b-iv, c-ii, d-iii

D

a-ii, b-i, c-iv, d-iii

Correct Answer

Option A

Detailed Explanation

The respiratory quotient (RQ) for carbohydrate oxidation is 1, indicating equal amounts of CO2 evolved and O2 consumed. RQ values vary for different substrates, with protein oxidation resulting in values greater than 1 and lipid oxidation resulting in values less than 1, while anaerobic respiration can produce a lower quotient.
