Blackman demonstrated that increasing illumination increased the photosynthetic rate up to a point when $CO_2$ becomes limiting. If light was not limiting,temperature becomes limiting. Emerson found that maximum $CO_2$ fixation could be achieved with brief flashes of light. Mark the correct statement in the following:

  • A
    Only one factor can be limited in photosynthesis
  • B
    Photosynthesis consists of a light and dark reaction
  • C
    The trapping of light by chloroplast is temperature dependent
  • D
    The trapping of light by chloroplast can occur only if $CO_2$ is present
