(a) True

(b) False

The question was asked by my school teacher while I was bunking the class.

I want to ask this question from Aerobic Respiration in section Nucleus & Aerobic Respiration of Cell Biology

Answer 1

Right option is (a) True

For explanation: Oxidative phosphorylation is a process where the energy released by electrons removed during substrate oxidation drives the formation of ATP. Substrate-level phosphorylation involves the transfer of phosphate group from substrate to ADP, leading to generation of ATP.
