Cyclic photophosphorylation is performed by PS-I only. In this process, an electron expelled by the excited photocentre, ie, P700 is returned to it after passing through a series of electron carriers. PS-I is located on both the non-appressed part of grana thylakoids as well as stroma thylakoids, while PS-II is located in the appressed part of grana thylakoids only, stroma thylakoids lack PS-II.

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:
