Question
The cell organelles involved in photorespiration are:
- Mitochondria and chloroplasts
- Chloroplasts only
- Chloroplasts, mitochondria, and peroxisomes
- Chloroplasts, mitochondria, and ribosomes
Hint:
This side reaction starts a pathway called photorespiration, which ultimately results in the loss of already-fixed carbon as CO2 rather than fixing carbon.
photorespiration is a method that involves the loss of fixed carbon in the presence of light in plants as CO2. In chloroplasts, it is started. ATP or NADPH is not created by this method and is a wasteful process.
The correct answer is: Chloroplasts, mitochondria, and peroxisomes
The three cellular organelles involved in photorespiration are chloroplast, peroxisome, and mitochondria.
