Describe about c3 pathway and c4 pathway
Answers
Answer:
here u go, these all occur in the calvin cycle friend... give it a good reading....
Explanation:
The initial CO2 acceptor is Ribulose-1,5-biphophate(RuBP) in a C3 pathway and Phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP) in C4 and CAM. Kranz Anatomy is present in the C4 pathway only, and it is absent in C3 and CAM plants. The CO2 compensation point (ppm) is 30-70 in C3 plant; 6-10 in C4 plants and 0-5 in the dark in CAM.
C4 is the alternative pathway of Calvin cycle (C3 cycle) taking place during the dark phase of photosynthesis. In the C4 cycle the first stable compound is 4 carbon compound, namely oxaloacetic acid. Hence it is called C4 cycle. It is a process of carbon dioxide fixation.
the first picture shows c3 pathway and the second picture shows c4 pathway
I have given you the full forms too..I hope this helps you!
mark this answer the brainliest please!!
