The difference in the effect of increasing carbon dioxide concentration on C3 and C4 plants is that:
1. C3 plants show a higher rate of photosynthesis than C4 plants at low CO2 concentration
2. C3 plants show a higher rate of photosynthesis than C4 plants at high CO2 concentration
3. C3 plants' photosynthesis rate decreases at higher CO2 concentrations, unlike C4 plants
4. C4 plants are more efficient in photosynthesis at lower CO2 concentrations

How many of the given statements are true?
 
I: C3 plants use the Calvin cycle to fix carbon dioxide directly into a three-carbon compound, 3-phosphoglycerate.
II: C4 plants conduct their light-dependent reactions and Calvin cycle in the same cell type.
III: Photosystem I primarily functions to generate ATP, while Photosystem II primarily functions to generate NADPH.
IV: C4 plants separate carbon fixation and the Calvin cycle into two different types of cells to reduce photorespiration.
V: Light-dependent reactions occur in the thylakoid membranes and involve the absorption of light to produce ATP and NADPH.
VI: In C3 plants, photorespiration is promoted by high concentrations of oxygen, especially under high light intensity and temperature conditions.
