  • B
    Initial stage of cellular respiration takes place in the cytoplasm.
  • C
    Incomplete oxidation of pyruvate by the stepwise removal of all the hydrogen atoms,leaving three molecules of $CO_2$.
  • D

Choose the correct statements:
$(i)$ The complete combustion of glucose,which produces $CO_2$ and $H_2O$ as end products,yields energy,most of which is given out as heat.
$(ii)$ The scheme of glycolysis was given by Gustav Embden,Otto Meyerhof,and $J$. Parnas and is often referred to as the $EMP$ pathway.
$(iii)$ In glycolysis,$ATP$ is utilised at $2$ steps,not $4$.
$(iv)$ In both lactic acid and alcohol fermentation,not much energy is released; less than $7$ percent of the energy in glucose is released and not all of it is trapped as high-energy bonds of $ATP$.
$(v)$ For aerobic respiration to take place within the mitochondria,the final product of glycolysis,pyruvate,is transported from the cytoplasm into the mitochondria.
