The first product of photosynthesis is a threecarbon compound called phosphoglyceric acid and phosphoglyceraldehyde. Almost immediately, two of these join to form a glucose molecule. Certain herbaceous plants such as sugarcane, corn, and sorghum, form as the first products of photosynthesis not threecarbon but four-carbon compounds— oxalacetic, malic, and aspartic acids.

Correct Option: C

Leukemia is a cancer of blood and bone marrow. When a person has leukemia, the body makes too many white blood cells (leukocytes). The causes of most types of leukemia are not known. In general, all cancers have a breakdown in the normal way cell division is controlled.

It is assumed that protodermal cells divide periclinally in certain cases to form multiseriate or multiple epidermis. The multiple epidermis is found in some organs like roots of orchids (Vanda), leaves of Ficus, Nerium, Piperomia, etc. In Nerium, it is found on both surfaces.

Chromosomal crossover (or crossing over) is the exchange of genetic material between homologous chromosomes that results in recombinant chromosomes. It is one of the final phases of genetic recombination, which occurs during prophase I of meiosis (pachytene) during a process called synapsis.

Ecology is the scientific study of interactions among organisms and their environment, such as the interactions organisms have with each other and with their abiotic environment. Topics of interest to ecologists include the diversity, distribution, amount (biomass), number (population) of organisms, as well as competition between them within and among ecosystems.
