81.

C4 plants have better productivity because

  • C4 plants absorb more light

  • C4 plants absorb more CO2

  • C4 plants does not carry photorespiration

  • C4 plants have more amount of RuBisCO


82.

Assertion: Photorespiration interferes with the successful functioning of Calvin cycle.

Reason: Photorespiration oxidises ribulose1,5 biphosphate which is an acceptor of CO2 in Calvin 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.

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.


A.

If both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion.

The efficiency of C4 plants is more than those of C3 plants because

(i) C4 plants are more efficient in picking up CO2 even when found in low concentration because of high affinity of PEP.

(ii) concentric arrangement of mesophyll cells produce a small area in relation to volume 

(iii) they can tolerate excess salts because of the presence of organic acids

(iv) normal oxygen concentration is not inhibitory for the growth in contrast to C3 plants.

(v) they are adapted to high temperature and intense radiation of tropics.

Cyclic photophosphorylation involves

  • PS I

  • PS II

  • PS I and PS II

  • P680


88.

The first stable product of Calvin cycle is

  • 3- phosphoglycerate

  • 1, 3 biphosphoglycerate

  • glyceralydehyde - 3 phosphate

  • ribulose - 5 - phosphate

89.

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.
