Assertion : The efficiency of C4 plant is more than those of C3 plant.
Reason : C4 plants are more efficient in picking CO2.
If both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion.
If both assertion and reason are hue but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion.
If assertion is true but reason is false.
If both assertion and reason are false.
The first stable product of Calvin cycle is
3- phosphoglycerate
1, 3 biphosphoglycerate
glyceralydehyde - 3 phosphate
ribulose - 5 - phosphate
Assertion : Due to pollution atmospheric concentration of CO2 is increasing which will be harmful for C4 plants whereas productivity is going to increase for C3 plants.
Reason : C4 plants have greater efficiency for CO2 as CO2 is fixed by PEP oxygenase.
If both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion.
If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion.
If assertion is true but reason is false.
If both assertion and reason are false.

Photorespiration is useful process.
C4 plants are more efficient than C3 plants.
C3 plants are more efficient than C4 plants.
Photorespiration is absent in C3 plants but present in C4 plants.
Which of the following is the characteristic of PS-I?
It is active only upto 680 nm of light.
The reaction centre of PS- I is P680.
PS- I is reduced by the electrons released in photolysis of water.
PS-I is involved in non-cyclic photophosphorylation.
Assertion : Dark reaction occurs only at night in the stroma of chloroplast.
Reason : CO2 fixation occurs only during C3 cycle.
If both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion
If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion
If assertion is true but reason is false
If both assertion and reason are false
D.
If both assertion and reason are false
Dark reaction is also known as light independent phase. Unlike, light reaction, it does not require light as an essential factor. Thus can take place both in the presence or absence of light.
The term dark reaction does not mean that it takes place only in dark period or at night. CO2 fixation occurs in both C3 and C4 cycle. In C3 cycle, CO2 is added by the enzyme, RuBisco to a 5 carbon compound RuBP that is ccnverted to 2 molecules of 3-carbon PGA. In C4 cycle the first product of CO2 fixation (takes place in mesophyll) is a 4-carbon compound, oxaloacetic acid. It is seen in some tropical plants.
In succulent plants the stomata open in night and close in day. Which among the following would be best hypothesis to explain the mechanism of stomatal action in night only.
CO2 accumulates, reduces pH, stimulate enzymes resulting in accumulation of sugars.
Increase in CO2 concentration, conversion of organic acids into starch resulting in the increased conversion into sugars resulting in K+ transport.
Low CO2 concentration accumulates organic acids resulting in the increased concentration of cell sap.
CO2 used up, increase pH results in accumulation of sugars.
Chlorenchyma is known to develop in the
cytoplasm of Chlorella
mycelium of a green mould such as Aspergillus
spore capsule of a moss
pollen tube of Pinus
