Identify the step in tricarboxylic acid cycle, which does not involve oxidation of substrate.
Given below are two statements:
Statement I: In $$\mathrm{C}_3$$ plants, some $$\mathrm{O}_2$$ binds to $$\mathrm{RuBisCO}$$, hence $$\mathrm{CO}_2$$ fixation is decreased.
Statement II: In $$\mathrm{C}_4$$ plants, mesophyll cells show very little photorespiration while bundle sheath cells do not show photorespiration.
In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below:
