Consider the situation where photosynthesis is going on at a steady pace in a typical experiment with a light on, and carbon dioxide is being combined with ribulose-bisphosphate (RuBP) to produce 3-phosphoglycerate (3PG). Then suddenly the source of carbon dioxide is eliminated. What changes in the concentrations of 3PG and RuBP would occur?

1. 3PG levels rise, RuBP levels fall.
2. 3PG levels fall, RuBP levels rise.
3. 3PG levels rise, RuBP levels rise.
4. 3PG levels fall, RuBP levels fall.

Assertion (A): RuBisCO has affinity for both the gases: CO2 and O2.
Reason (R): RuBisCO is the most abundant enzyme in the biosphere.
Choices for Assertions and reasons:
1. Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) is the correct explanation of (A).
2. Both (A) and (R) are True, but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A).
3. (A) is True, but (R) is False.
4. (A) is False, but (R) is True.

Consider the two given statements:
Assertion (A): The cyclic flow hence, results only in the synthesis of ATP, but not of NADPH + H+.
Reason (R): The excited electron does not pass on to NADP+ but is cycled back to the PS I complex through the electron transport chain.
 
1. Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) correctly explains (A)
2. (A) is True but (R) is False
3. (A) is False but (R) is True
4. Both (A) and (R) are True but (R) does not explain (A)
