Answer:

In C4 plants photorespiration does not occur. This is because they have a mechanism that increases the concentration of CO2 at the enzyme site and due to the kranz anatomy. The mesophyll cells lacks RuBisCo enzyme. The malic acid from the mesophyll is broken down in the bundle sheath cells to release CO2.
