Q. PEPcase has an advantage over RuBisCo. The advantage is
A) RuBisCo combines with $O_{2}$ but PEPcase do not
B) RuBisCo combines with $NO_{2}$ but PEPcase do not
C) RuBisCo conserve energy but PEPcase do not
D) PEPcase is present in both mesophyll cells and bundle sheath cells but RuBisCo is not
Explanation
PEPcase has an advantage over the RuBisCo because PEPcase does not bind to the oxygen. But RuBisCo binds with oxygen and does the photorespiration, which is a harmful and wastage process and leads to decrease in photosynthetic yields
