Assertion (A): | At any point, the rate of photosynthesis will be determined by the factor available at sub-optimal levels. |
Reason (R): | During photosynthesis, usually one factor affecting CO2 fixation is the major cause that limits its rate. |
1. | Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A). |

4. | Both (A) and (R) are false. |
Assertion (A): | Light is rarely a limiting factor for plants except for plants in shade. |
Reason (R): | For photosynthesis, light saturation occurs at 10 percent of full sunlight. |

4. | Both (A) and (R) are false. |
Assertion (A): | Carboxylation is the most crucial step of Calvin cycle. |
Reason (R): | This reaction is catalysed by the enzyme RuBP carboxylase which results in the formation of two molecules of 3-PGA |
