In C4 plants:
Statement I: CO2 is initially incorporated into a four-carbon organic acid (either malate or aspartate) in the mesophyll cells.
Statement II: The chloroplasts of the bundle sheath cells convert this CO2 into carbohydrates by the conventional C3 pathway.
 
1. Statement I is correct; Statement II is incorrect
2. Statement I is incorrect; Statement II is incorrect
3. Statement I is incorrect; Statement II is correct
4. Statement I is correct; Statement II is correct
