Question

Fermentation accounts for the complete breakdown of glucose and sucrose.

(a) True

(b) False

I got this question in an interview for job.

This is a very interesting question from Respiratory Quotient topic in portion Respiration in Plants of Biology – Class 11

Answer 1

Right option is (b) False

For explanation I would say: Fermentation accounts for only a partial breakdown of glucose whereas in aerobic respiration it is completely degraded to CO2 and H2O.
