21.

The plants respond to photoperiods due to the presence of :

  • enzymes

  • stomata

  • phytochromes

  • phytohormones


22.

Mesophyll cells, which liberate malic acid at night time, are of :

  • C4 - plants

  • C3 - plants

  • C2 - plants

  • C1 - plants

23.

Photorespiration in C3 -plants starts from :

  • glycine

  • glycerate

  • phosphoglycolate

  • phosphoglycerate


C.

phosphoglycolate

Photorespiration in C-plants starts from phosphoglycolate. Phosphoglycolate is formed in chloroplast which represents the source of carbon dioxide released in photorespiration. Its phosphate group is first hydrolyzed away by a specific phosphatase found in chloroplasts of C3 -plants releasing Pi and glycolic acid. The glycolate then moves out of chloroplasts into the adjacent peroxisomes.

A person breathing normally at rest, takes in and expels approximately half a litre of air during each respiratory cycle. This is called :

  • tidal volume
