Ques. 1AIPMT 2005

Carbohydrates, the most abundant biomolecule on earth, are produced by

  1. some bacteria, algae and green plant cells
  2. fungi, algae and green plant cells
  3. all bacteria, fungi and algae
  4. viruses, fungi and bacteria.

Answer

(1) some bacteria, algae and green plant cells

Solution

Carbohydrates are synthesised from CO2 and H2O by photosynthesis.

6CO2 + 12H2O Light C6H12O6 + 6O2 + 6H2O

∵ Photosynthesis is carried out by green plant cells, algae and some bacteria (cyanobacteria and other photosynthetic bacteria).

∵ Fungi are heterotrophs, viruses are non-cellular and most bacteria are heterotrophic, so they cannot produce carbohydrates.

∴ Carbohydrates are produced by some bacteria, algae and green plant cells.
