In Kranz anatomy, the bundle sheath cells have :
1. Thick walls, no intercellular spaces and large number of chloroplasts
2. Thin walls, no intercellular spaces and several chloroplasts
3. Thick walls, many intercellular spaces and few chloroplasts
4. Thin walls, many intercellular spaced and no chloroplasts

C4 plants are photosynthetically more efficient than C3 plants because :
1. They have more chloroplasts
2. The CO2 compensation point is more
3. The CO2 efflux is not prevented
4. CO2 generated during photosynthesis is trapped and recycled through PEP-carboxylase
Experimental O2 entry in C4 - plants would inhibit CO2 fixation reactions in :
1. Bundle sheath cells
2. Mesophyll cells
3. Both (1) and (2)
4. Neither (1) nor (2)

Properties of mesophyll cell and bundle sheath cells of a C4 plant is given below, Identify the missing properties marked as A, B, C and D.
Mesophyll cell
Bundle sheath cell
Chloroplast granal
Chloroplast agranal
A
Only PS-I is present
B
C
Carboxylation occurs
D
1. A = Only PS-II present, B = Photolysis absent, C = Photolysis occurs, D = Carboxylation absent
2. A =Both PS-I and PS-II present, B = Contain more chloroplast, C = Contain less chloroplast, D = RuBisCo present
3. A = Both PS-I and PS-II present , B = Photolysis occurs, C = Photolysis absent, D = Carboxylation occurs
4. A = Lack both PS-I and PS-II, B = Contain less chloroplast, C = Contain more chloroplast, D = RuBisCo present

If gene alterations cause the plant to be deficient in photorespiration, what would most probably occur?
1. There would be more light induced damage to the cells
2. Less ATP would be generated
3. Less O2 would be produced
4. Photosynthetic efficiency would be reduced at low light intensites

Photorespiratory pathway is a wasteful process as it :
1. Does not synthesis sugar but release CO2
2. Does not from ATP
3. Does not form NADPH+H+
4. Is responsible for all of the above

C4 plants do not show photorespiration as :
1. C4 acid from the mesophyll is broken down in bundle sheath cells to release CO2
2. RuBisCO in the bundle sheath cell function as carboxylase minimising oxygenase activity
3. Initial carboxylation is done by PEP-case
4. For all the reason mentioned above
