Both C4 and CAM plants employ physiological and biochemical strategies to reduce photorespiration. Which of the following is an accurate comparison of the two strategies?

1. C4 plants fix CO2 as the 4-carbon acid oxaloacetate, while CAM plants fix CO2 as the 5-carbon acid ribulose 1, 5-bisphosphate.

2. C4 plants fix CO2 in the mesophyll but carry out the Calvin cycle in the bundle sheath, while CAM plants fix CO2 and carry out the Calvin cycle in the mesophyll.

3. C4 plants fix CO2 in the bundle sheath but carry out the Calvin cycle in the mesophyll, while CAM plants fix CO2 and carry out the Calvin cycle in the bundle sheath.

4. C4 plants store CO2 as phosphoglycolate, while CAM plants store CO2 as oxaloacetate.

5. C4 plants carry out photosynthetic electron transport in the daytime, while CAM plants carry out photosynthetic electron transport at night.
