Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion (A) and the other is labelled as Reason (R).
Assertion (A): Photorespiration is considered a wasteful process in C3 plants. 
Reason (R): In photorespiration, RuBisCO binds with oxygen instead of carbon dioxide, leading to the release of CO₂ with the utilization of ATP and no synthesis of sugars.
In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below:

#Botany
  1. Both (A) and (R) are correct and (R) is the correct explanation of (A).

  2. Both (A) and (R) are correct but (R) is NOT the correct explanation of (A).

  3. (A) is correct but (R) is incorrect.

  4. (A) is incorrect but (R) is correct.

Match the metabolic process in Column I with its correct characteristic or location in Column II.

Column IColumn II
A. Glycolysis1. Generates ATP via Oxidative Phosphorylation using oxygen as the final acceptor.
B. Krebs Cycle (Citric Acid Cycle)2. Occurs in the Cytoplasm; produces ATP via Substrate-level phosphorylation.
C. Electron Transport Chain3. Occurs in the Mitochondrial Matrix; produces GTP/ATP via Substrate-level phosphorylation.
