21. Sentence Correction: Determine if the following statements are TRUE or FALSE. If the sentence is false, correct the underlined word(s) to earn the mark. a) There will be a difference of four ATP molecules produced per glucose molecule if the less efficient glycerol-phosphate shuttle system is used to shuttle cytoplasmic NAD+ into the matrix. b) If carbohydrate levels are low, cells will metabolize proteins as their second energy source for aerobic cellular respiration. c) Chlorophyll a is the only pigment that can transfer the electrons to the primary electron acceptor. d) During photosynthesis, the electrons that travel down the electron transport chain are derived from the splitting of carbon dioxide. e) During the electron transport chain in aerobic respiration, hydrogen ions are pumped from the intermembrane space into the matrix so that the concentration gradient can be used by ATP synthase to produce ATP. f) During the electron transport chain of photosynthesis, plastoquinone will shuttle the electrons to the final electron acceptor to produce NADPH.
