Krebs cycle achieves the complete oxidation of glucose and is also called:
AAncillary respiration
BAerobic respiration
CAerated respiration
DAnaerobic respiration
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: B. Aerobic respiration
1. Complete oxidation needs oxygen.
2. The pathway is named for that requirement.
3. Organisms adopt Krebs cycle for complete oxidation, which is also called aerobic respiration.
4. So the answer is aerobic respiration.
