  • question_answer
    Study the following table:
    1. Phosphoenol pyruvate \[\to \] Oxaloacetic acid
    2. Malic acid \[\to \]Pyruvic acid
    3. Ribulose bisphosphate \[\to \] Phosphoglyceric acid
    4. Oxaloacetic acid \[\to \] Malic acid In which of the above reactions, the end products are formed as a result of carboxylation reaction.
     Identify the correct combination.

    A)  1 and 4 only                      

    B)  1 and 3 only

    C)  2 and 3 only                      

    D)  2 and 4 only

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

                     Phospoenol pyruvate is first changed into acetyl Co A and then through krebs cycle, changed into oxalacetic acid. In Calvin cycle RuBP reacts with \[C{{O}_{2}}\]and 3-phosphoglyceric acid is formed.
