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.

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.
B.
Increase in CO2 concentration, conversion of organic acids into starch resulting in the increased conversion into sugars resulting in K+ transport.
In CAM plants stomata open at night. In these plants night acidification occurs. i.e., malic acid is
synthesised during night due to incomplete oxidation of carbohydrates.
In night. 2 C 6H12O6+ 3 O2 3 C 4H6O5+ 3H2O
(malic acid)
leads to opening of stomata
At night malic acid formed in guard cells dissociates into H and malate ions. K ion exchange from subsidiary cells with H ions. Thus due to accumulation of K ions osmotic pressure of guard cells increases, endosmosis occurs and guard cells become turgid due to which stomata opens. The malic acid at clay time breaks into CO2 and pyruvic acid thus increasing the concentration of CO2 in mesophyll cells. This is utilised in Calvin cycle to form sugar which is finally converted into starch.

mycelium of a green mould such as Aspergillus
spore capsule of a moss
