Where are C4 acids broken down to release CO2 for the Calvin cycle?
AMesophyll cells
BStomatal guard cells
CBundle sheath cells
DEpidermal cells
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: C. Bundle sheath cells
The bundle sheath cells split the C4 acids into CO2 and a 3-carbon molecule, and CO2 enters the Calvin cycle.
