Correct answer: Monosaccharides
  • A. Enzymes
  • B. Coenzymes
  • C. Vitamins
  • D. Antibiotics

Explanation: Metabolically-important species that include phosphorylated ribose include ADP, ATP, coenzyme A, and NADH. Thus, option B is correct.

Correct answer: Coenzymes
  • A. Starch
  • B. Cellulose
  • C. Glycogen
  • D. All of these

Explanation: Out of all the options, the most abundant carbohydrate in animals is glycogen.

Correct answer: Glycogen
  • A. Ventricular systole
  • B. Ventricular diastole
  • C. Atrial systole
  • D. Atrial diastole
  • E. Both during atrial systole and atrial diastole

Explanation: Explanation for this question will be added soon.

Correct answer: Ventricular systole
  • A. Purkinje fibers
  • B. AV bundle
  • C. Sinoatrial node
  • D. Bundle of His

Explanation: The impulse starts in a small bundle of specialised cells located in the right atrium, called the SA node.

Correct answer: Sinoatrial node
  • A. The formation of carbon dioxide
  • B. The oxidation of cytochrome
  • C. The reduction of oxygen to water
  • D. The synthesis of ATP

Explanation: c) The reduction of oxygen to water:The reduction of oxygen to water is the final reaction in aerobic respiration.

  • B. When alpha - Ketogluterate is converted into Succinate
  • C. When Succinate is converted into Fumarate
  • D. When Fumarate is converted into Maltose

Explanation: Succinate converts into fumarate using the enzyme succinate dehydrogenase and [FAD] is reduced to [FADH2] which is a prosthetic group of…

Correct answer: When Succinate is converted into Fumarate
  • A. 1 ATP
  • B. 2 ATP
  • C. 3 ATP
