Answer: Option D

Solution(By Examveda Team)

a. PEP is Phosphoenol pyruvic acid produced During Hatch and Slack pathway. PEP combines with CO2 in the presence of enzyme PEP case, to form OAA.
b. RuBP is involved in the Calvin cycle. RuBP is Ribulose bi phosphate, a 5-carbon molecule generated in Calvin cycle by using up 3 molecules of ATP.
c. Hill reaction is also known as Light reaction. It is the light-driven transfer of electrons from water to Hill reagents (non-physiological oxidants) in a direction against the chemical potential gradient as part of photosynthesis. Robin Hill discovered the reaction in 1937. He demonstrated that the process by which plants produce oxygen is separate from the process that converts carbon dioxide to sugars.
d. Blackmann’s reaction is also known as a dark reaction. The Blackman reaction is the name given to the rate-determining process. When photosynthesis is saturated with both light and carbon dioxide.
