NEET PYQs on Respiration in Plants: Class-XI


Given below are two statements: One is labelled as Assertion A and the other is labelled as Reason R:

Assertion A: ATP is used at two steps in glycolysis.

Reason R: First ATP is used in converting glucose into glucose-6-phosphate and second ATP is used in conversion of fructose-6- phosphate into fructose-1-6-diphosphate.

In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below is true:
