Consider the given two statements:
| Assertion (A): | Plants that do not use PEP-carboxylase in carbon fixation are called C3 plants. |
| Reason (R): | The primary carboxylation reaction in C3 plants, catalyzed by RuBisCO, produces the three-carbon 3-phosphoglyceric acids directly in the Calvin-Benson cycle. |
| 1. | (A) is True but (R) is False |
| 2. | Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) explains (A) |
| 3. | Both (A) and (R) are True but (R) does not explain (A) |
| 4. | (A) is False but (R) is True |

‘The effect of water as a factor affecting photosynthesis is more through its effect on the plant, rather than directly on photosynthesis’. Which of the following support this statement?
1. Only I
2. Only II
3. Both I and II
4. Neither I nor II
| I: | Water stress causes the stomata to close, hence reducing the CO2 availability. |
| II: | Water stress also makes leaves wilt, thus, increasing the surface area of the leaves and their metabolic activity as well. |

Consider the two statements:
| Assertion (A): | Except for plants in shade or in dense forests, light is rarely a limiting factor for photosynthesis in nature. |
| Reason (R): | Increase in incident light beyond a point causes the breakdown of chlorophyll and a decrease in photosynthesis. |
