Assertion :- Cells oxidise glucose and other respiratory substances not in one step, but in several small steps. Reason:- Oxidation in multiple steps enabling some steps to be just large enough such that the energy released can be coupled to ATP synthesis.

A drunkard walking in a narrow lane takes 5 steps forward and 3 steps backward, followed again by 5 steps forward and 3 steps backward, and so on. Each step is 1m long and requires 1s. Plot the x-t graph of his motion. Determine graphically or otherwise how long the drunkard takes to fall in a pit 9 m away from the start.
