The correct Answer is:
To determine the wrong option from the provided statements regarding respiration in plants, let's analyze each statement one by one. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Statement I**: "Fermentation is the partial breakdown of glucose, but aerobic respiration is the complete breakdown of glucose into CO₂ and H₂O." - **Analysis**: This statement is correct. Fermentation does involve the partial breakdown of glucose, resulting in products like ethanol or lactic acid, while aerobic respiration fully oxidizes glucose to carbon dioxide and water. 2. **Statement II**: "NADH + H⁺ (very slow) → NAD⁺ (Fermentation)" - **Analysis**: This statement is also correct. In fermentation, the oxidation of NADH to NAD⁺ occurs slowly, which is a characteristic of the fermentation process. 3. **Statement III**: "NADH + H⁺ (very fast) → NAD⁺ (Aerobic respiration)" - **Analysis**: This statement is correct as well. In aerobic respiration, the regeneration of NAD⁺ from NADH is a rapid process due to the presence of oxygen, which allows for efficient electron transport. 4. **Statement IV**: "In the respiratory pathway, glycerol changes into DHAP." - **Analysis**: This statement is also correct. Glycerol can be converted into dihydroxyacetone phosphate (DHAP) in the glycolytic pathway, which is a part of cellular respiration. ### Conclusion: All the statements provided are correct, and thus, there is no wrong option among the choices given. Therefore, the answer to the question is that there is no wrong option.
