Uday Kiran · Accepted Answer

C3 Plants
C4 Plants

These plants lack bundle sheath cells, only
mesophyll cells are present
These plants have two types of photosynthetic cells
- mesophyll & bundle sheath cells

Same type of chloroplasts are present
These have dimorphic chloroplasts

Primary acceptor of CO2 is accepted 5
carbon compound i e- Ribulose-1,5 bi phosphate
Primary acceptor of CO2 is phosphoenol
pyruvate

First stable compound is 3 carbon molecule

First stable compound is 4 carbon molecule

hope it helps u
thumbs p please
