Question

how does RuBisco involve in photosynthesis ? class 11 biology​

Answer 1

Answer:

Photorespiration (also known as the oxidative photosynthetic carbon cycle, or C2 photosynthesis) refers to a process in plant metabolism where the enzyme RuBisCO oxygenates RuBP, wasting some of the energy produced by photosynthesis. ... Photorespiration also incurs a direct cost of one ATP and one NAD(P)H.RuBISCO, the enzyme which fixes carbon dioxide during the Calvin cycle, is also responsible for oxygen fixation during photorespiration. In particular, carbon dioxide and oxygen compete for access to RuBISCO. RuBISCO's affinity for carbon dioxide is much higher than its affinity for oxygen.
