Energy liberated during respiration is stored as

  1. ATP

  2. ADP

  3. FAD

  4. NADP


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

Cellular respiration requires oxidation of organic substrates for the liberation of energy. The energy released is stored in every living cell in the form of a universal high energy molecule called ATP or adenosine triphosphate.

So the answer is 'ATP'.

ATP is

  1. Adenine triphosphate

  2. Adenosine tetraphosphate

  3. Adenosine triphosphate

  4. Adenine tetraphosphate


Correct Option: C
Explanation:

Adenosine triphosphate is the long form of ATP, it is the complex organic chemical that participates in many processes. Found in all forms of life, ATP is often referred to as the "molecular unit of currency" of intracellular energy transfer.

So, the correct option is C.

When ATP molecules is hydrolysed in ADP, then the quantity of energy released is about

  1. 120 cal

  2. 1,200 cal

  3. 12,000 cal

  4. 1,20,000 cal


Correct Option: C

Common immediate source of energy in cellular activity or energy currency of the cell is

  1. DNA

  2. ATP

  3. RNA

  4. NAD


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

The common immediate source of energy in cellular activity is ATP molecule. It is also called as energy currency of the cell. ATP molecules are formed as a result of phosphorylation. It is used in various cellular processes for providing energy.

Which one is not a commercial energy?

  1. Coal

  2. Animal power

  3. Petroleum and natural gas

  4. Electricity


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

Commercial energy is obtained to the users at some price and is used mostly for commercial purposes. It is a non-renewable form of energy. Where as, non-commercial energy is a renewable form, obtained from cow dung, fire wood and agricultural waste. 

So the correct option is 'Animal power'
