Study carefully the following statements and select the incorrect ones. When fats are used in respiration, the RQ is more than unity because fats contain more O_(2) and require relatively less amount of O_(2) for oxidation. (ii) The most important energy carrier is ATP. This energy rich compound is mobile and can pass from one cell to another. (iii) Before pyruvic acid enter Krebs' cycle, one of the two carbon atoms of pyruvic acid is reduced to carbon dioxide in the reaction called reductive carboxylation. (iv) A special electron carrier system located in the mitochondrial membrane is called shuttle system. It transfers electron from the hydrogens of cytoplasmic NADH to the mitochondrial electron carriers across the mitochondrial membrane. (v) Zymase is a complex mixture of many enzymes which requires several coenzymes for its action. The enzyme complex-zymase catalyses series of reaction taking place during fermentation leading to the production of ethyl alcohol.

Paragraph-based questions : Green corridor refers to a special road route that enables harvested organs meant for transplants to reach the destined hospital. A 45-year-old woman, a victim of a railway accident. was declared brain dead, her husband and children agreed to donate her kidneys, liver and heart. One of her kidneys was transplanted to a patient in MGM Hospital and the second kidney helped a patient in Jaslok hospital. Her liver helped the transplant of a patient in Wockhardt Hospital. And her heart was sent to Fortis to the patient on a super urgent priority list, transported via a green corridor covering 18 km in less than 16 minutes. This was possible due to Green corridor.
