Q. In photorespiration cell organelles involved are

AMUAMU 1996

Solution:

: Peroxisomes participate in photorespiration with chloroplast and mitochondria. Photorespiration is light dependent uptake of $ C{{O}_{2}} $ . In contrast to normal respiration or dark respiration5 which occurs in the mitochondria, no ATP or reduced NAD is produced by photorespiration. The energy released being lost as heat. Photorespiration occurs in photosynthetic cell only whereas normal respiration occurs in all the living cells.
