Photorespiration is favoured by

Options

A. Nigh `O_(2)` and low `CO_(2)`
B. Low light and high `O_(2)`
C. Low temperature and high `O_(2)`
D. low `O_(2)` and high `CO_(2)`

Answer

A

Explanation

Photorespiration is light induced oxidation of photosynthetic intermediates with the help of oxygen. It is stimulated by high `O_(2)` concentration or low `CO_(2)`. High light intensity, high temperature and ageing of leaf.
