Photorespiration is a wasteful process. Why is it so?
1. The number of ATP molecules produced in the pathway is very low.
2. The number of NADPH molecules produced in the pathway is very low.
3. The synthesis of sugars in the pathway requires a large input of ATP energy.
4. There is neither synthesis of sugars, nor of ATP in the pathway.
