Photophosphorylation is the process in which ATP is produced, which is called as energy currency of the cell. During this process, ADP is phosphorylated to give ATP in presence of light energy. Related Theory During photophosphorylation, electrons move from water through PSII, intermediate chain of carriers, through PSI, and finally to NADP+ causing its reduction into NADPH2. Flow of electrons through the carriers linking PSII and PSI pump protons into the thylakoid lumen.

Which of the following statements about RuBisCO is true?
Observe the given figure. Identify the different stages labelled with alphabets by selecting the correct option. 
How many molecules of ATP and NADPH are required for every molecule of $\mathrm{CO}_2$ fixed in the Calvin cycle?
Given below are two statements: Statement I: In $\mathrm{C}_3$ plants, some $\mathrm{O}_2$ binds to RuBisCO, hence $\mathrm{CO}_2$ fixation is decreased. Statement II: In $\mathrm{C}_4$ plants, mesophyll cells show very little photorespiration while bundle sheath cells do not show photorespiration. In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below:
