Tabitha Holloway · Answer 1

1) Answer is: C3 plants. C3 process converts carbon dioxide and ribulose bisphosphate into 3-phosphoglycerate.

2) Answer is: molecule of oxygen (O ₂).

3) Answer is: photorespiration. In this process the enzyme RuBisCO oxygenate

RuBP (r ibulose 1,5-bisphosphate).

4) Answer is: C4 plants, because four carbon molecule is the first product of this type of carbon fixation.

5) Answer is: CAM (Crassulacean acid metabolism) plants.

6) Answer is: RuBisCO (Ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase).
