C
In 
plants, photorespiration does not occur.
B only
plants, photorespiration does not occur. B only
D
plants exhibit 'Kranz' anatomy. (E) ATP synthesis in chloroplast occurs through chemiosmosis Choose the answer from the options given below:
A and D only
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
D
False: Water splitting is associated with PS-II, not PS-I.
False: 'Kranz' anatomy is a feature of
