Assertin : `CO_(2)` is transported form mesophyll cell to bundle sheath of chloroplasts in `C_(4)` plants.
Reason : RbBP is called final acceptor of `CO_(2)` in `C_(4)` plants.

Options

A. If both the assertion and the reason are true and the reason is a correct explanation of the assertion
B. If both the assertion and reason are true but the reason is not a correct explanation of the assertion
C. If the assertion is true but the reason is false
D. If the assertion is false but the reason is true

Answer

D

Explanation

`C_4` acid i.e. oxaloacetic acid, malic acid is transported to the cells of bundle sheath. Where it is a field to pyruvic acid and . `CO_2` the chloroplast of these cells contain RUBP of Calvin cycle so that `CO_2` is fixed to carbohydrates.
