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.
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.
Which process requires electrons that are obtained by the splitting of water A cyclic photophosphorylation B noncyclic photophosphorylation C Photorespiration?
The answer is A) Cyclic Photophosphorylation
What is the process that takes place in a chloroplast?
Photosynthesis is the main purpose.Some other rections like photorespiration and protein synthesis also take place.
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
What happens when RuBP reacts with O2?
According to Biologists, the process in which oxygen becomes attached to RuBp which is fixed is known as photorespiration. This process does not apply to carbon dioxide.
Which takes plae in the chloroplast?
Major process is photosynthesis. Also involve in photorespiration

What is the name of the process wherein co2 is released without the production of atp or nadph?
Photorespiration
How do you increase photorespiration?
There is no need to increase photorespiration . It is an injurious process for plants . It is increased by strong sun light and high temperature as it happens at mid day .It specially happens in tropical regions .
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.
