The form of pigment which inhibits germination is

  • P760

  • P730

  • P650

  • All of these


66.

In Hatch and Slack pathway

  • chloroplast are of same type

  • occurs in Kranz anatomy where mesophyll have small chloroplast whereas bundle sheath have granal chloroplast

  • occurs in Kranz anatomy when mesophyll have small chloroplast where as bundle sheath have larger, agranal chloroplast

  • Kranz anatomy where mesophyll cells are diffused


67.

In Hatch and Slack type plants CO2 acceptor is

  • malate

  • pyruvate

  • phosphoenol pyruvate

  • aspartate


68.

In CAM plants

  • stomata open in day and close at night

In C4 plants, CO2 combines with

  • phosphoglyceric acid

  • ribulose diphosphate

  • phosphoenol pyruvate

  • phosphoglyceraldehyde


C.

phosphoenol pyruvate

In C4 plants, CO2 is picked up by a 3-carbon compound Phosphoenol pyruvate (PEP) to form 4-carbon compound Oxaloacetic acid. This reaction is catalysed by PEP carboxylase and it takes place in the cytoplasm of mesophyll cells.

  • high O2 and low CO2

  • high CO2 and low O2

  • high temperature and low O2

  • high humidity and temperature
