Match Column - I with Column - II and select the CORRECT option from the codes given below

 Column – I Column – II
A.FADH2(i)Phosphoenolpyruvate
B.Electron acceptor(ii)Fumarate
C.Pyruvate dehydrogenase(iii)Cytochrome C
D.Substrate-level phosphorylation(iv)Acetyl CoA

Options:

Answer:
A
Solution:

The given columns are based on the chemical reactions involved in glycolysis and aerobic respiration.

Dehydrogenation: In TCA cycle, succinate undergoes dehydrogenation to form fumarate and FADH2.

Cytochrome C: It is a small protein and does the work of electron transfer between complexes in the ETS.

Pyruvate dehydrogenase: It acts as a catalyst in the oxidative decarboxylation of pyruvic acid including Coenzyme A and NAD+.

Substrate-level phosphorylation: The process of formation of ATP, when substrate get converted to products it is called substrate-level phosphorylation. when phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP) gets converted to pyruvate, ATP is formed.
