Cyanide resistant pathway is

A

Anaerobic respiration

B

Aerobic respiration

C

Both a and b

D

none of these

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

Cyanide is deadly poison which inhibit the activity of cytochrome oxidase enzyme of electron transport chain. As in case of aerobic respiration there is no electron transport chain involved, therefore, anaerobic respiration is cyanide resistant pathway.
