    A process that makes important difference between \[{{C}_{3}}\,\,and\,\,{{C}_{4}}\] plants is

    A) Photosynthesis   

    B) Photorespiration

    C) Transpiration                 

    D) Glycolysis

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    Photorespiration is absent in \[{{C}_{4}}\] plants. Photo- respiration does not produce energy or reducing power. Rather, it consumes energy. Further, it does the work of photosynthesis. There is \[25%\] loss of fixed\[C{{O}_{2}}\]. Therefore, photorespiration is a highly wasteful process. This happens only in case of \[{{C}_{3}}\] plants.
