Solving time: 3 mins

Assertion : The atmospheric concentration of $C O_{2}$ at which photosynthesis just compensates for respiration is referred to as $C O_{2}$ compensation point.
Reason : The $C O_{2}$ compensation point is reached when the amount of $C O_{2}$ uptake is less than that generated through respiration because the level of $C O_{2}$ in the atmosphere is more than that required for achieving $C O_{2}$ compensation point.

If both Assertion and Reason are true and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion.

If both Assertion and Reason are true but Reason is not the correct explanation of Assertion.

If Assertion is true but Reason is false.

Compensation point is that value or point in the light intensity and atmospheric

C O_{2}

concentration when the rate of photosynthesis is just equivalent to the rate of respiration in the photosynthetic organ. So that there is not net gaseous exchange.
