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 Owould 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

Cplants 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

If atmospheric CO2 concentrations increase two fold or more, how will plants be affected, disregarding any changes in the climate ?
1. All plants will experience increase in photosynthesis 
2. Cplants will have faster growth, Cplants will be minimally affected 
3. Cplants will have faster growth, C3 plants will be minimally affected 
4. Plants growth will not affected because atmospheric COconcentrations are never limiting for plant growth

How is photosynthesis similar in Cplants and CAM plants ?
1. Both uses only PS-I 
2. Both makes sugar without Ccycle 
3. In both cases, initial carboxylation does not involve RuBisCO
4. Both possess agranal chloroplast only
