Photosynthesis is important because:
I: It is the primary source of all food on earth.
II: It is responsible for the release of oxygen into the atmosphere by green plants.
 
1. Only I is correct
2. Only II is correct

Except for plants in shade or in dense forests, light is rarely a limiting factor in nature. This is because:

1. Dark reactions do not depend on light
2. The rate of photosynthesis can be increased by higher carbon dioxide and lower temperatures even in low light conditions
3. Light saturation occurs at 10 % of full sunlight
4. Carbon fixation is independent of enzymes

Consider the given two statements:
Statement I: Despite the presence of a green leaf, optimal light and carbon dioxide conditions, the plant may not photosynthesize if the temperature is very low.
Statement II: If a chemical process is affected by more than one factor, then its rate will be determined by the factor which is nearest to its minimal value.
 
1. Both Statement I and Statement II are correct and Statement II explains Statement I
2. Both Statement I and Statement II are correct but Statement II does not explain Statement I

Consider the given two statements:
Statement I:  Green house crops such as tomatoes and bell pepper are allowed to grow in carbon dioxide enriched atmosphere. This leads to higher yields.
Statement II:  C3 plants respond to higher carbon dioxide concentration by showing increased rates of photosynthesis, leading to higher productivity.

2. (A) is True; (R) is False
3. (A) is False; (R) is False
