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

    A) transpiration   

    B)        glycolysis            

    C)        photosynthesis  

    D)       photorespiration

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    Photorespiration is a light dependent process which occurs in \[{{C}_{3}}\]plants. It is opposite to photosynthesis because during this process, uptake of \[{{O}_{2}}\]and release of \[C{{O}_{2}}\]take place. Due to presence of Kranz anatomy, \[{{C}_{4}}\] plants do not show photorespiration.
