The correct Answer is:
To solve the question regarding the assertion and reason provided, we will break it down step by step. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Assertion**: - The assertion states that "P680 is called PS II." - P680 refers to a specific pigment that absorbs light at a wavelength of 680 nm, and it is indeed associated with Photosystem II (PS II) in the process of photosynthesis. 2. **Evaluating the Assertion**: - Since P680 is correctly identified as PS II, we can conclude that the assertion is **true**. 3. **Understanding the Reason**: - The reason states that "C4 plants have photorespiration." - Photorespiration is a process that occurs in plants, primarily in C3 plants, where oxygen is taken up and carbon dioxide is released, leading to a decrease in photosynthetic efficiency. 4. **Evaluating the Reason**: - C4 plants, on the other hand, are adapted to minimize photorespiration. They have a unique anatomy (Kranz anatomy) and biochemical pathway that allows them to efficiently fix carbon dioxide and reduce the occurrence of photorespiration. - Therefore, the statement that "C4 plants have photorespiration" is **false**. 5. **Conclusion**: - Since the assertion is true and the reason is false, we can conclude that the correct answer is **Option 3**: "Assertion is correct, reason is wrong." ### Final Answer: The correct answer is **Option 3**: Assertion is correct, reason is wrong. ---
