Question

Hatch and Slack pathway (HSK pathway)is otherwise known as C4-cycle because - (A) The first stable product is oxaloacetic acid / OAA which is a C4-compound (B) The primary CO2 acceptor is OAA, a C4 compound (C) All intermediate metabolites are C4-compounds (D) At one time 4CO2 molecules take part in Carboxylation pathway

Tardigrade Admin · Accepted Answer

Correct answer is (a) The first stable product is oxaloacetic acid / OAA which is a C4-compound

Q. Hatch and Slack pathway ( $H S K$ pathway)is otherwise known as $C_{4}$ -cycle because -

The first stable product is oxaloacetic acid / $O AA$ which is a $C_{4}$ -compound

The primary $C O_{2}$ acceptor is $O AA$ , a $C_{4}$ compound

All intermediate metabolites are $C_{4}$ -compounds

At one time $4 C O_{2}$ molecules take part in Carboxylation pathway

Correct answer is (a) The first stable product is oxaloacetic acid / $O AA$ which is a $C_{4}$ -compound
