EASY
In C4 plants, C3 cycle takes place in
MEDIUM
How many molecules of ATP are required for the synthesis of 5 molecules of glucose during the Calvin cycle?
MEDIUM

Assertion (A): In PS I, the reaction centre, chlorophyll 'a' has an absorption peak at 700 nm, hence is called P700, while in PS II, it has absorption maxima at 680 nm and is called P680.

Reason (R): Calvin pathways occur in all photosynthetic plants, it does not matter where they have C3 or C4 pathways and the Calvin cycle described in three stages: Carboxylation, reduction and regeneration.

The correct answer is:
