Question
The R.Q. is infinity, when ______
Answer: Option D
:
D
Respiratory quotient is the ratio of the volume of carbon dioxide evolved to that of oxygen consumed by an organism, tissue, or cell in a given time.
That is, R.Q. = Volume ofCO2evolved/ Volume ofO2consumed
Since noO2is consumed in anaerobic respiration, R.Q. = Volume ofCO2evolved/0 = ∝
