ATP is required to complete C4 photsynthesis.
Look in your book, page 119.
Each one both minimises photorespiration and optimises the Calvin cycle.
Here is a partial list of C4 plants. http://www.bio.net/bionet/mm/ecophys/attachments/20071014/7a9bede1/C4plantslistfromPhotosynthetica1992-0001.pdf
crabgrass is a c4 plant
C4 got its named based on the number of bicarbon molecules. C4 has oxaloacetate which is 4C. C4 is the type of plant that can stand heat better.
C4
No, it performs C3 photosynthesis
Look in your book, page 119.
a plant which creates a four carbon (C4) sugar as its basic sugar unit when performing photosynthesis. example- corn (maize)

No, alfalfa is not a C4 plant. It is a C3 plant, which means it uses the C3 photosynthesis pathway. C4 plants have a different type of photosynthesis pathway that allows them to be more efficient in hot and dry conditions.
In C3 plants, photosynthesis occurs throughout the leaf, while in C4 plants, photosynthesis occurs in the inner cells. The photosynthesis in C3 plants is more efficient compared to the one in C4 plants.
C4 Plants
C4 photosynthesis or CAM (crassulacean acid metabolism) photosynthesis
C4 and CAM are types of photosynthesis that differ from the standard C3 type. In C4 and CAM, the stomata, or air pores, in the leaves only open at night to minimize moisture loss from evaporation. This mechanism is common in very hot or dry climates.
