A very efficient converter of solar energy with net productivity of 2-4kg/`m^(2)` or more is the crop of:-

A

wheat

B

sugarcane

C

rice

D

bajra

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
In `C_(4)`-plants, (e.g. maize, sugarcane, sorgum) optimum temperature of photosynthesis is `30-45^(@)C`. In `C_(4)`-plants, rate of net photosynthesis in full sunlight is (40-80 mg `CO_(2)//dm^(2)//hr`) which is more than the rate of net photosynthesis (15-35 mg `CO_(2)//dm^(2)//hr`) at optimum sunlight in `C_(3)`-plants.

Ram used to live in a remote village of Rajasthan which didn’t have electricity. He was a good student and studied very hard to become an engineer in spite of all hardships. While studying, he came to know that solar energy can be converted to electrical energy by using specially designed devices. He went to his village and discussed it with villagers. He also told them that Govt. also gives subsidy for using solar devices. All the villagers agreed and they contacted the Govt. officials who obliged their request and the village became the model village which used solar energy for electricity.
