In C4 plants, PEP captures CO2, forming oxaloacetic acid.
Ref: NCERT Class 11 Biology Chapter 11: Photosynthesis in Higher Plants Chemiosmotic Hypothesis and Factors Affecting Photosynthesis
Malic enzyme releases CO₂ from malate in bundle sheath cells, providing high CO₂ concentration for RuBisCO.
Ref: NCERT Class 11 Biology Chapter 11: Photosynthesis in Higher Plants C4 Pathway - Hatch and Slack and Photorespiration
The C4 pathway helps plants avoid photorespiration in hot, dry environments.
Ref: NCERT Class 11 Biology Chapter 11: Photosynthesis in Higher Plants C4 Pathway - Hatch and Slack and Photorespiration
In the C4 pathway, PEP carboxylase efficiently captures CO2 and minimizes photorespiration.
Ref: NCERT Class 11 Biology Chapter 11: Photosynthesis in Higher Plants C4 Pathway - Hatch and Slack and Photorespiration
PEP carboxylase captures CO2 and converts it into oxaloacetic acid (OAA) in C4 plants.
Ref: NCERT Class 11 Biology Chapter 11: Photosynthesis in Higher Plants C4 Pathway - Hatch and Slack and Photorespiration
In C₄ plants, bundle sheath cells maintain a high CO₂ concentration around RuBisCO, preventing photorespiration.
Ref: NCERT Class 11 Biology Chapter 11: Photosynthesis in Higher Plants C4 Pathway - Hatch and Slack and Photorespiration
PEP carboxylase in C₄ plants fixes CO₂ into oxaloacetic acid (OAA) in the mesophyll cells, preventing photorespiration.
Ref: NCERT Class 11 Biology Chapter 11: Photosynthesis in Higher Plants C4 Pathway - Hatch and Slack and Photorespiration
In C4 plants, PEP carboxylase captures CO2 in mesophyll cells, reducing photorespiration.
Ref: NCERT Class 11 Biology Chapter 11: Photosynthesis in Higher Plants C4 Pathway - Hatch and Slack and Photorespiration
C₄ plants prevent photorespiration by maintaining high CO₂ levels in the bundle sheath cells, making them more efficient.
Ref: NCERT Class 11 Biology Chapter 11: Photosynthesis in Higher Plants C4 Pathway - Hatch and Slack and Photorespiration
C₄ plants use PEP carboxylase to initially fix CO₂, reducing photorespiration by maintaining high CO₂ concentration in bundle sheath cells.
Ref: NCERT Class 11 Biology Chapter 11: Photosynthesis in Higher Plants C4 Pathway - Hatch and Slack and Photorespiration
C₃ plants have lower productivity in hot climates because they undergo high rates of photorespiration, reducing CO₂ fixation efficiency.
Ref: NCERT Class 11 Biology Chapter 11: Photosynthesis in Higher Plants C4 Pathway - Hatch and Slack and Photorespiration
In C₄ plants, the Calvin cycle occurs exclusively in the bundle sheath cells, while the C₄ pathway takes place in mesophyll cells.
