BiologyPhotosynthesis in Higher PlantsNEET 2026

Find the incorrect statement(s) about photosynthesis from the following: A. The water splitting complex is associated with PS I. B. C plants use the C pathway of CO fixation as the main biosynthetic pathway. C. In C plants, photorespiration does not occur. D. C plants exhibit 'Kranz' anatomy. E. ATP synthesis in chloroplast occurs through chemiosmosis. Choose the answer from the options given below:

Answer: (4)
