A) ribulose phosphate kinase
B) fructose phosphatase
C) ribulose hiphosphate carboxylase
D) phosphoenol pyruvic acid carboxylase
Correct Answer: D
Solution :
In \[{{\text{C}}_{\text{4}}}\text{-}\]plants, \[C{{O}_{2}}\]is picked up by phosphoenol pyruvate (PEP) and the reaction being catalysed by PEP carboxylase. \[\text{C}{{\text{O}}_{\text{2}}}+\,PEP\xrightarrow[\begin{smallmatrix} \text{Mesophyll}\,\text{cells} \\ \text{of}\,\text{a}\,{{\text{C}}_{\text{4}}}\text{-}\,\text{plant} \end{smallmatrix}]{\text{PEP}\,\text{carboxylase}}\,\text{Oxalo}\,\text{acetic}\,\text{acid}\] dehydro NADPH genesa Malic acid + \[NAD{{P}^{+}}\]
