# Photosynthesis...
- C3 pathway occurs in Stroma of chloroplast of Mesophyll cells... While C4 occurs in GRANUM THYLAKOIDS...
- C3 has RUBISCO while C4 has Both but most efficient PEP
- Synthesize of PGA ( 3-C COMPOUND) so formed as First stable compound on C3 so DUE TO 3-C +CE it is called as C3 cycle
- Synthesize of OXALOACETIC ACID ( OAA - 4C COMPOUND) SO due to presence of 4 carbon it is known as C4 cycle,..
THANK YOU... ^_^

Answer:
Explanation:
★C3 plant -
- Obtimum temprature for photosynthesis 10° to 25°C.
- The leaves do not posses kranz anatomy.
- Chloroplast are of one type ( monomorphic).
- Bundle sheath cell usually do not contain chloroplast.
- RUBP is first acceptor of CO2.
- PGA is the first stable product which is 3 carbon compound.
- Plants operate only calvin cycle.
- Rate of carbon assimilation is slow
- Rate of photosynthesis is high.
- The cycle operate in all plants.
★C4 plant -
- Obtimum temprature for photosynthesis is 30° to 45°.
- The leaves have kranz anatomy.
- There are 2 types of chloroplast.
- Bundel sheath cell contains chloroplast.
- PEP is the first acceptor of CO2.
- Oxaloacetic acid is the first product which is 4 carbon compound.
- Plants operate C4 cycle in addition to calvin cycle.
- Rate of carbon assimilation is rapid.
- Rate of photorespiration is neglegible.
- The cycle is found only in some plants.
