Which of the following is `CO_(2)` aceptor in `C_(4)` plants

A

Phosphoenol pyruvae (PEP)

B

Ribylose 1,5-diposphate(RuDP)

C

Oxaloacetic acid (OAA)

D

Phosphoglyeric acid

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
One of the basic features of `C_(4)` plants is that `CO_(2)` is trapped by a `CO_(2)` acceptor, phosphonol pyruvic acid present in the (PEP) chloroplasts of mesophyll cells of these leaves, leading to the formation of a 4-C compound oxaloactic acid.
