CO₂ is released without the production of ATP or NADPH.This process is called A)carbon fixation. B)oxygen fixation. C)photophosphorylation. D)photorespiration. E)photooxidation.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The release of CO₂ without the production of ATP or NADPH is a characteristic of photorespiration, a process in which oxygen is taken up by the plant, resulting in the release of CO2 and consumes ATP instead of producing it. The other options, carbon fixation and photophosphorylation, involve the production of ATP and/or NADPH, while oxygen fixation and photooxidation are not relevant to this process.
