Given below are two statements: In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below:

  1. Both Statement I and Statement II are true
  2. Both Statement I and Statement II are false
  3. Statement I is true but Statement II is false
  4. Statement I is false but Statement II is true

Answer

(3) Statement I is true but Statement II is false

Solution

Statement I: In C3 plants some O2 binds with RuBisCO (photorespiration), so CO2 fixation decreases — true.

Statement II: In C4 plants the mesophyll cells lack RuBisCO, so they show no photorespiration; RuBisCO in bundle sheath cells works at high CO2 concentration, so photorespiration is practically absent — the statement is false.

Answer: (3)
