Assertion: Protons or hydrogen ions produced by photolysis of water accumulate in the lumen of thylakoids.
Reason: Photolysis of water takes place in inner membrane of thylakoid.

If both assertion and reason are false.
Assertion : Glycolysis is the first step of respiration in which glucose completely breaks into CO2 and H2O.
Reason : In this process, there is net gain of twenty four molecules of ATP.

Glycolysis is a process in which a molecule of glucose (6C) is degraded in a series of enzyme- catalyzed reactions to yield two molecules of pyruvate (3C). This process releases energy (ATP) and reducing power (NADH2). It is a first step of respiration that occurs inside the cytoplasm and is independent of O2.
In glycolysis, two molecules of ATP are consumed during double phosphorylation of glucose to form Fructose 1, 6 Diphosphate. Four molecules of ATP are produced in the conversion of 1, 3- Diphosphoglycerate to 3- Phosphoglycerate and Phosphenol Pyruvate to Pyruvate whereas, two molecules of NADH2 are formed during oxidation of glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate to 1, 3-Diphosphoglycerate. Since, each NADH is equivalent to 3 ATP, so net gain in glycolysis is 8 ATP.
Which of the following is the connecting link between glycolysis and Krebs cycle?
Acetyl Co- A
Oxalosuccinic acid
Pyruvic acid
Citric acid
