Question

Which of these is NOT part of aerobic cellular respiration? A) electron transport B) glycolysis C) Calvin Cycle D) cytoplasm

Answer 1

Answer is c. Calvin cycle.

Calvin Cycle is also called as the Calvin-Benson Cycle. It is a series of reactions occur in the stroma of the chloroplast during carbon fixation phase of photosynthesis. Carbon fixation is a reduction process in which carbon dioxide is fixed into carbohydrate used assimilatory power (ATP + NADPH) formed during light reaction of photosynthesis.

Electron transport occurs on the inner membrane of mitochondria, glycolysis occurs in the cytoplasm of the cell. These are parts of aerobic respiration.

Answer 2

c. Calvin Cycle

The Calvin-Banson Cycle is a set of chemical reactions that is light independent, occurring after sunlight energy has been picked up. It occurs in (stroma) chloroplasts with photosynthesis. Carbon fixation, reduction phase, carbohydrate formation and regeneration phase are the four phases of the cycle.
