(a) Hatch and Slack pathway: Refer text
(b) Calvin cycle: Refer text
(c) PEP carboxylase: It is responsible for carboxylation of phosphoenol pyruvate (PEP):
`PEP+CO_2 +H_2 O overset("PEP carboxylase ") to ` Oxaloacetate `+H_3 PO_4`
(d) They are present in outer sheath of vascular bundle. They bear large chloroplasts in `C_4` plants.
