The complete oxidation of glucose takes place in:
Correct answer: B. Aerobic respiration
- A. Alcoholic fermentation
- B. Aerobic respiration
- C. Lactic fermentation
- D. Anaerobic respiration
Explanation
Aerobic respiration takes place in the presence of oxygen and results in the complete oxidation of glucose. On the other hand, anaerobic respiration takes place in the absence of oxygen, and hence glucose is partially oxidized. Alcoholic and lactic fermentation are the two types of anaerobic respiration.
