Detailed Solution

In photorespiration oxygen is added to RuBP and ${CO}_{2}$ is released in mitochondria.
Photorespiration is a process which involves loss of fixed carbon as CO₂
in plants in the presence of light. It is initiated in chloroplasts. This process does not produce ATP or NADPH and is a wasteful process. Photorespiration occurs usually when there is the high concentration of oxygen.
Under such circumstances, RuBisCO, the enzyme that catalyses the carboxylation of RuBP during the first step of Calvin cycle, functions as an oxygenase. Some O₂does bind to RuBisCO and hence CO₂ fixation is decreased.
The RuBP binds with O₂ to form one molecule of PGA (3C compound) and phosphoglycolate (2C compound ) in the pathway of photorespiration.
There is neither the synthesis sugar nor of ATP. Rather, it results in the release of CO₂ with the utilisation of ATP. It leads to a 25 percent loss of the fixed CO₂.
So, photorespiration does not release energy.
