Why is photorespiration wastful process?
photorespiration protects plant from photooxidation and photoinhibition.
Is photorespiration independent of light intensity?
Photorespiration occurs in dry situations, where there is intense light. Desert plants are a great example. Therefore, no, photorespiration is not independent of light intensity.
Does photorespiration produce energy?
No, photorespiration actually wastes energy because no useful product is created when photorespiration occurs, and, as a result, the energy absorb from light earlier is wasted.
Can tomato plants show photo respiration?
No, tomato plants do not undergo photorespiration. Photorespiration is a process that occurs in C3 plants, where oxygen is mistakenly used instead of carbon dioxide in the initial steps of photosynthesis. However, tomato plants are classified as C4 plants, which have evolved mechanisms to minimize photorespiration.
Why doesn't photorespiration occur in chemoautotrophs?
Photorespiration doesn't happen because of this spatial separation. Chemoautotrophs are found in the deep sea. Autotrophs make their own food.

Where is Photorespiration located?
Photorespiration involves three different organelles--- chloroplasts, peroxisomes and mitochondria

What is photorespiration?
Photorespiration occurs when a plant runs out of CO2 and begins adding O2 to RuBP in the Calvin cycle.

However, tomato plants are classified as C4 plants, which have evolved mechanisms to minimize photorespiration.
Why is photorespiration such a waste?
Photorespiration is a wasteful process because: i. About 25 % of the CO2 fixed during photosynthesis is lost ii. There is no formation of ATP & NADH

Photorespiration doesn't happen because of this spatial separation. Chemoautotrophs are found in the deep sea. Autotrophs make their own food.
What happens during photorespiration?
In photorespiration, O2 replaces CO2 in a non-productive, wasteful reaction. Photorespiration occurs when the CO2 levels inside a leaf become low, which happens on hot dry days when a plant is forced to close its stomata to prevent excess water loss.
Does photorespiration produce energy in any form?
True
Photorespiration does not produce energy in any form?
True!
What is the another to carbon dioxide for the function it performs?
photorespiration
