Photorespiration is a respiratory process in many higher plants by which they take up oxygen in the light and give out some carbon- dioxide.
Oxygen is a competitive inhibitor of CO2 fixation. Increase in O2 concentration would favour the uptake of oxygen by Rubisco leading to increase in photorespiration.
The true statement about 'green-house effect' is that it is
caused only by CO2
caused by CO2, CFCs, CH4 and NO2 gases
caused by combination of many gases
none of the above
