Assertion. Under conditions of high intensity and limited `CO_(2)` supply, photorespiration has a useful role in proteching the plants from photo-oxidative damage.
Reason. If enough `CO_(2)` is not available to utilise light energy for carboxylation to proceed, the excess energy may not cause damage to plants

Assertion : Under conditions of high light intensity and limited CO_(2) supply, photorespiration has a useful role in protecting the plants from photo oxidative damage. Reason If enough CO_(2) is not avilable to utilize light enregy for carboxylation to proceed, the excess energy may not cause damage to plants.

Assertion (A) Under condition of high light intensity and limited CO_(2) supply, photorespiration has a useful role in protecting the plants from photooxidative damage. Reason (R ) If enough CO_(2) is not available to utilize light energy for carboxylation to proceed , the excess energy may not cause damage to plants.

Photorespiration is useful for plants as it: 1) Protects plants from photo-oxidative damage 2) Provides net gain 2 ATP 3) Enable RuBisCO to show its oxygenase activity 4) Increase rate of C O 2 fixation

Assertion: Presence of photorespiration is considered as a wasteful and energy consuming process in crop plants, ultimately leads to reduction in yield. Reason: During C_(3) synthesis upto 50% CO_(2) fixed may have to pass through photorespiratory process to form carbohydrate such as sucrose.

Assertion : The role of chlorophyll in photosynthesis is absorption of light and photolysis of water. Reason : The function of solar energy is assimilation of CO_2
