A: | C3 |
B: | C4 |
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 |
Assertion (A): | The effect of water as a factor is more indirect rather than direct on photosynthesis. |
Reason (R): | Water is one of the reactants in the light reaction. |
1. | Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) correctly explains (A). |
2. | Both (A) and (R) are True but (R) does not correctly explain (A). |
3. | (A) is True but (R) is False. |
4. | Both (A) and (R) are False. |
Assertion (A): | At any point, the rate of photosynthesis will be determined by the factor available at sub-optimal levels. |
Reason (R): | During photosynthesis, usually one factor affecting CO2 fixation is the major cause that limits its rate. |
1. | Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A). |
2. | Both (A) and (R) are true but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A). |
3. | (A) is true but (R) is false. |
4. | Both (A) and (R) are false. |
