In late 1969 , Mary Rose Foster ( Bette Midler ) is a famous rock and roll diva known as The Rose . Although a success , she is burnt out and lonely but is kept working by her gruff , greedy manager and promoter Rudge Campbell ( Alan Bates ) . Though loud and brassy , Rose is an insecure alcoholic and former drug user who seems to crave approval in her life . As such , she is determined to return to her hometown , now as a superstar . After being humiliated by a country singing star named Billy Ray ( Harry Dean Stanton ) whose songs she performs in her show , Rose takes off with a limousine driver named Huston Dyer ( Frederic Forrest ) and begins a romance with him . Rudge thinks Huston is just another hanger on , but Rose thinks she has finally met her true love . Huston tells her that he is actually an AWOL sergeant from the Army , and she tells him of her past in Florida . They have a rocky relationship and her lifestyle of `` Sex , Drugs , and Rock & Roll '' , constant touring , and Huston 's jealousy over Rose 's lesbian lover Sarah lead her to an inevitable breakdown at a tour stop in Memphis . Huston and Rose break up and she returns to her hometown of Jacksonville , Florida with PFC Mal , whom she met in Texas , as a security escort , telling him about her past .


Arnold also realized such a flanking maneuver was likely , and petitioned Gates for permission to move his forces from the heights to meet potential movements , where the American skill at woodlands combat would be at an advantage . Gates , whose preferred strategy was to sit and wait for the expected frontal assault , grudgingly permitted a reconnaissance in force consisting of Daniel Morgan 's men and Henry Dearborn 's light infantry . When Morgan 's men reached an open field northwest of Bemis Heights belonging to Loyalist John Freeman , they spotted British advance troops in the field . Fraser 's column was slightly delayed and had not yet reached the field , while Hamilton 's column had also made its way across a ravine and was approaching the field from the east through dense forest and difficult terrain . Riedesel 's force , while it was on the road , was delayed by obstacles thrown down by the Americans . The sound of gunfire to the west prompted Riedesel to send some of his artillery down a track in that direction . The troops Morgan 's men saw were an advance company from Hamilton 's column .

Sorry , Wrong Number conforms to many of the conventions of film noir . The movie plays in real time , with many flashbacks to flesh out the story . Stanwyck 's bedroom window overlooks the night skyline of Manhattan . The film is shot very dark , with looming shadows and a circling camera used to maintain a high level of suspense .


The balance sheet is the financial statement showing a firm 's assets , liabilities and equity ( capital ) at a set point in time , usually the end of the fiscal year reported on the accompanying income statement . The total assets always equal the total combined liabilities and equity in dollar amount . This statement best demonstrates the basic accounting equation - Assets = Liabilities + Equity . The statement can be used to help show the status of a company .

Leona Stevenson ( Barbara Stanwyck ) is the spoiled , bedridden daughter of wealthy businessman James Cotterell ( Ed Begley ) . One day , while listening to what seems to be a crossed telephone connection , she hears two men planning a woman 's murder . The call cuts off without Leona learning very much other than it is scheduled for 11 : 15 p.m. , when a passing train will hide any sounds . She calls the telephone company and the police , but with few concrete details , they can do nothing . Complicating matters , her husband Henry ( Lancaster ) is overdue and their servants have the night off , leaving her all alone in a Manhattan apartment .


A total of twelve men have landed on the Moon . This was accomplished with two US pilot - astronauts flying a Lunar Module on each of six NASA missions across a 41 - month period starting on 20 July 1969 UTC , with Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin on Apollo 11 , and ending on 14 December 1972 UTC with Gene Cernan and Jack Schmitt on Apollo 17 .

Fisher ( German : Fischer ) is an English occupational name for one who obtained his living by fishing or living by a fishing weir . In Ireland it is the anglicized form of Gaelic Ó Bradáin ' descendant of Bradán ' , a personal name meaning ' salmon ' . This name was sometimes translated into English as Salmon or Fisher . The Celtic name Mac an Iascair in Ireland or MacInesker in Scotland also translates to Fisher .

The beginning of the empire is conventionally dated to the victory by its founder Babur over Ibrahim Lodi , the last ruler of the Delhi Sultanate , in the First Battle of Panipat ( 1526 ) . The Mughal emperors had roots in the Turco - Mongol Timurid dynasty of Central Asia , claiming direct descent from both Genghis Khan ( founder of the Mongol Empire , through his son Chagatai Khan ) and Timur ( Turco - Mongol conqueror who founded the Timurid Empire ) . During the reign of Humayun , the successor of Babur , the empire was briefly interrupted by the Sur Empire . The `` classic period '' of the Mughal Empire started in 1556 with the ascension of Akbar the Great to the throne . Under the rule of Akbar and his son Jahangir , the region enjoyed economic progress as well as religious harmony , and the monarchs were interested in local religious and cultural traditions . Akbar was a successful warrior who also forged alliances with several Hindu Rajput kingdoms . Some Rajput kingdoms continued to pose a significant threat to the Mughal dominance of northwestern India , but most of them were subdued by Akbar . All Mughal emperors were Muslims ; Akbar , however , propounded a syncretic religion in the latter part of his life called Dīn - i Ilāhī , as recorded in historical books like Ain - i - Akbari and Dabistān - i Mazāhib .

India recorded their first Test victory , in their 24th match , against England at Madras in 1952 . Later in the same year , they won their first Test series , which was against Pakistan . They continued their improvement throughout the early 1950s with a series win against New Zealand in 1956 . However , they did not win again in the remainder of the decade and lost badly to strong Australian and English sides . On 24 August 1959 , India lost by an innings in the Test to complete the only 5 -- 0 whitewash ever inflicted by England . The next decade saw India 's reputation develop as a team with a strong record at home . They won their first Test series against England at home in 1961 -- 62 and also won a home series against New Zealand . They managed to draw home series against Pakistan and Australia and another series against England . In this same period , India also won its first series outside the subcontinent , against New Zealand in 1967 -- 68 .


Although cricket was introduced to India by European merchant sailors in the 18th century , and the first cricket club was established in Calcutta ( currently known as Kolkata ) in 1792 , India 's national cricket team did not play its first Test match until 25 June 1932 at Lord 's , becoming the sixth team to be granted Test cricket status . In its first fifty years of international cricket , India was one of the weaker teams , winning only 35 of the first 196 Test matches it played . From 1932 India had to wait until 1952 , almost 20 years for its first Test victory . The team , however , gained strength in the 1970s with the emergence of players such as batsmen Sunil Gavaskar and Gundappa Viswanath , all - rounder Kapil Dev and the Indian spin quartet of Erapalli Prasanna , Srinivas Venkataraghavan , Bhagwat Chandrasekhar and Bishen Singh Bedi .


<Dd> Alana Rivera is Raven 's ex-best friend . She finds great pleasure in teasing and bullying Raven . She hangs out with her posse , which includes followers Muffy and Loka . She was first introduced in Season 2 in the episode `` Do n't Have a Cow '' . In `` Run Raven Run '' , we learn that Alana and Raven were best friends until 4th grade when a school play had them both competing for the role of the Tooth Fairy ( which Raven got , while Alana portrayed the tooth decay ) , and would ultimately end their friendship . Alana and Raven almost became friends again when Raven `` teamed up '' with Alana 's posse ( in the episode `` Clothes Minded '' ) , which happens after Chelsea and Eddie do not support Raven 's school `` protest '' . In the episode `` Run , Raven , Run '' , Raven and Alana briefly become friends until Chelsea reveals that Raven put chewing gum in Alana 's hair . This causes her to get her head shaved and covered up . Alana , Muffy , and Loka also spend the night at Raven 's house in the episode `` Shake , Rattle , and Rae '' . In this episode , Raven and Alana almost become friends again , until Alana announces that `` the score is 1 -- 0 '' . She was replaced in season 3 by Bianca ( Erica Rivera ) , because , according to Muffy , she was so bad , she got sent to military school , while Bianca was so bad that she got kicked out of military school . </Dd>

On July 9 , 1958 , a giant landslide at the head of Lituya Bay in Alaska , caused by an earthquake , generated a wave that washed out trees to a maximum altitude of 520 metres ( 1,710 ft ) at the entrance of Gilbert Inlet . The wave surged over the headland , stripping trees and soil down to bedrock , and surged along the fjord which forms Lituya Bay , destroying a fishing boat anchored there and killing two people . Howard Ulrich and his son managed to ride the wave in their boat , and both survived .


The peripheral nervous system ( PNS ) is one of the two components of the nervous system , the other part is the central nervous system ( CNS ) . The PNS consists of the nerves and ganglia outside the brain and spinal cord . The main function of the PNS is to connect the CNS to the limbs and organs , essentially serving as a relay between the brain and spinal cord and the rest of the body . Unlike the CNS , the PNS is not protected by the vertebral column and skull , or by the blood -- brain barrier , which leaves it exposed to toxins and mechanical injuries . The peripheral nervous system is divided into the somatic nervous system and the autonomic nervous system . In the somatic nervous system , the cranial nerves are part of the PNS with the exception of the optic nerve ( cranial nerve II ) , along with the retina . The second cranial nerve is not a true peripheral nerve but a tract of the diencephalon . Cranial nerve ganglia originated in the CNS . However , the remaining ten cranial nerve axons extend beyond the brain and are therefore considered part of the PNS . The autonomic nervous system is an involuntary control of smooth muscle and glands . The connection between CNS and organs allows the system to be in two different functional states : sympathetic and parasympathetic .


In ferns , these form a yellowish or brownish mass on the edge or underside of a fertile frond . In some species , they are protected during development by a scale or film of tissue called the indusium , which forms an umbrella - like cover .


Groundhog Day , ( Pennsylvania German : Grund'sau dåk , Grundsaudaag , Grundsow Dawg , Murmeltiertag ; Nova Scotia : Daks Day ) is a popular tradition celebrated in the United States and Canada on February 2 . It derives from the Pennsylvania Dutch superstition that if a groundhog ( Deitsch : Grundsau , Grunddax , Dax ) emerging from its burrow on this day sees a shadow due to clear weather , it will retreat to its den and winter will persist for six more weeks , and if it does not see its shadow because of cloudiness , spring will arrive early . While the tradition remains popular in modern times , studies have found no consistent correlation between a groundhog seeing its shadow or not and the subsequent arrival time of spring - like weather .


The calculus controversy ( often referred to with the German term Prioritätsstreit , meaning `` priority dispute '' ) was an argument between 17th - century mathematicians Isaac Newton and Gottfried Leibniz ( begun or fomented in part by their disciples and associates ) over who had first invented the mathematical study of change , calculus . It is a question that had been the cause of a major intellectual controversy , one that began simmering in 1699 and broke out in full force in 1711 .

Roberts is a surname of Norman origin , deriving from the Norman given name Robert , meaning `` bright renown '' -- from the Germanic elements `` hrod '' meaning renown and `` beraht '' meaning bright . Roberts may mean either `` servant of Robert '' or `` son of Robert '' ; the latter is more common in Wales , while the former is more common in England . Although the name Robert was known in the British isles before the Norman Conquest in 1066 , it was mainly introduced into Britain by the Normans . Today the surname Roberts is common in England , Wales , Ireland and the Isle of Man , with the biggest concentration by far occurring in North Wales . The name is also common in Scotland .


In an early part of the Revelation , on the Greek island of Patmos , Jesus Christ instructs John of Patmos to : `` Write on a scroll what you see and send it to the seven churches : to Ephesus , and to Smyrna , and to Pergamum , and to Thyatira , and to Sardis , and to Philadelphia , and to Laodicea . ''


Lord Banquo / ˈbæŋkwoʊ / , the Thane of Lochaber , is a character in William Shakespeare 's 1606 play Macbeth . In the play , he is at first an ally to Macbeth ( both are generals in the King 's army ) and they meet the Three Witches together . After prophesying that Macbeth will become king , the witches tell Banquo that he will not be king himself , but that his descendants will be . Later , Macbeth in his lust for power sees Banquo as a threat and has him murdered by two hired assassins ; Banquo 's son , Fleance , escapes . Banquo 's ghost returns in a later scene ( Banquet Scene ) , causing Macbeth to react with alarm during a public feast .

The Fallen teleports to their location and steals the Matrix from Optimus , then returns to the pyramid with Megatron and activates the Sun Harvester . Jetfire , who was gravely wounded during the battle by Scorponok but did manage to kill his attacker , sacrifices himself in order to transplant his parts to Optimus , which give him immense strength and the ability to fly . Optimus knocks the Fallen and Megatron off the pyramid , destroying the Sun Harvester in the process . In the battle , Optimus disables Megatron and kills the Fallen ; vowing vengeance , Megatron retreats with Starscream . The


Meanwhile , NEST forces and the Autobots land near the Giza pyramid complex but are attacked by a large force of Decepticons . During the battle , many Constructicons combine to form Devastator , who destroys one of the pyramids to reveal the Sun Harvester inside , before he is killed by a destroyer 's railgun called in by Simmons . Ravage and the Decepticon Rampage attempt to spring a trap with Sam 's captured parents as bait , in order to force Sam to give them the Matrix , but Bumblebee interferes and kills them both . Major William Lennox and Master Sergeant Robert Epps call in an airstrike , which kills a majority of the Decepticon ground forces . However , Megatron manages to shoot Sam , seemingly killing him , before retreating upon getting attacked . Nearing his death , the Primes contact Sam through a vision , telling him the Matrix is earned , not found , and that he earned the right to bear it . They restore Sam 's life and the Matrix , which he uses to revive Optimus .


After mating , the female spends extra time basking to keep her eggs warm . She may also have a change of diet , eating only certain foods , or not eating as much as she normally would . A female can lay between two and 30 eggs depending on body size and other factors . One female can lay up to five clutches in the same year , and clutches are usually spaced 12 to 36 days apart . The time between mating and egg - laying can be days or weeks . The actual egg fertilization takes place during the egg - laying . This process also permits the laying of fertile eggs the following season , as the sperm can remain viable and available in the female 's body in the absence of mating . During the last weeks of gestation , the female spends less time in the water and smells and scratches at the ground , indicating she is searching for a suitable place to lay her eggs . The female excavates a hole , using her hind legs , and lays her eggs in it .

Chinese calendar defines the lunar month with winter solstice as the 11th month , which means that Chinese New Year usually falls on the second new moon after the winter solstice ( rarely the third if an intercalary month intervenes ) . In more than 96 % of the years , the Chinese New Year 's Day is the closest new moon to lichun ( Chinese : 立春 ; `` start of spring '' ) on 4 or 5 February , and the first new moon after Dahan ( Chinese : 大寒 ; `` major cold '' ) . In the Gregorian calendar , the Lunar New Year begins at the new moon that falls between 21 January and 20 February .


Neither of the tip and ring conductors is permanently connected to earth ground , but may be connected to ground during signaling operations . Typically , the ring conductor has a direct current ( DC ) potential of − 48 V to − 52 V with respect to the tip conductor when the line is in the on - hook ( idle ) state . Floating both conductors , not referencing either one to ground , minimizes the pickup of hum from any nearby alternating current ( AC ) power wires .


The geocentric model was eventually replaced by the heliocentric model . The earliest heliocentric model , Copernican heliocentrism , could remove Ptolemy 's epicycles because the retrograde motion could be seen to be the result of the combination of Earth and planet movement and speeds . Copernicus felt strongly that equants were a violation of Aristotelian purity , and proved that replacement of the equant with a pair of new epicycles was entirely equivalent . Astronomers often continued using the equants instead of the epicycles because the former was easier to calculate , and gave the same result .

Home computers were a class of microcomputers entering the market in 1977 , and becoming common during the 1980s . They were marketed to consumers as affordable and accessible computers that , for the first time , were intended for the use of a single nontechnical user . These computers were a distinct market segment that typically cost much less than business , scientific or engineering - oriented computers of the time such as the IBM PC , and were generally less powerful in terms of memory and expandability . However , a home computer often had better graphics and sound than contemporary business computers . Their most common uses were playing video games , but they were also regularly used for word processing , doing homework , and programming .

The Redwood National and State Parks ( RNSP ) are a complex of several state and national parks located in the United States , along the coast of northern California . Comprising Redwood National Park ( established 1968 ) and California 's Del Norte Coast , Jedediah Smith , and Prairie Creek Redwoods State Parks ( dating from the 1920s ) , the combined RNSP contain 139,000 acres ( 560 km ) , and feature old - growth temperate rainforests . Located entirely within Del Norte and Humboldt Counties , the four parks , together , protect 45 % of all remaining coast redwood ( Sequoia sempervirens ) old - growth forests , totaling at least 38,982 acres ( 157.75 km ) . These trees are the tallest and one of the most massive tree species on Earth . In addition to the redwood forests , the parks preserve other indigenous flora , fauna , grassland prairie , cultural resources , portions of rivers and other streams , and 37 miles ( 60 km ) of pristine coastline .

The term was originally used in the United States in the late - 19th and early - 20th centuries to refer to small traveling circuses that toured through small towns and rural areas . The name derives from the common use of performing dogs and ponies as the main attractions of the events . Performances were generally held in open - air arenas , such as race tracks or public spaces in localities that were too small or remote to attract larger , more elaborate performers or performances . The most notorious was `` Prof. Gentry 's Famous Dog & Pony Show , '' started when teenager Henry Gentry and his brothers started touring in 1886 with their act , originally entitled `` Gentry 's Equine and Canine Paradox . '' It started small , but evolved into a full circus show . Other early dog and pony shows included Morris ' Equine and Canine Paradoxes ( 1883 ) and Hurlburt 's Dog and Pony Show ( late 1880s ) .

  Following an uncomfortable run in with Misaki Shokuhō , another Level 5 esper from Tokiwadai Middle School , Mikoto Misaka meets up with Kuroko Shirai , Kazari Uiharu , Ruiko Saten and Erii Haruue as they all pay a visit to Banri Edasaki in the hospital . While Erii rekindles with Banri , who is undergoing physiotherapy , Mikoto tries to come up with a way to surprise Banri with a present everyone bought for her , only to realize she had left the bag containing the present in Banri 's ward . Just then , a criminal patient that was under watch by the Anti-Skills is broken free by some of his companions and takes Erii as a hostage . Upon learning of the situation from Aiho Yomikawa and Tsuzuri Tessō , Mikoto heads to the rooftop to try and prevent the culprits escaping via helicopter . They throw Erii off the side of the building in order to break free , but she is saved thanks to Ruiko and Kuroko . Learning that her bag is onboard the fleeing helicopter , Mikoto has Kuroko teleport her to the skies where she destroys the helicopter with her railgun , with Kuroko safely apprehending the culprits . With the incident dealt with , Banri finally opens her present from everyone , which is a Sakugawa Middle School uniform for her to wear once she recovers .

  2 ( 26 ) 	  `` Critical '' `` Kuritikaru '' ( 寿命 中断 ( クリティカル ) ) 	  April 19 , 2013

  Mikoto recalls in a dream of how , when she was younger , she was approached by scientists wanting to use her DNA map to help cure Duchenne muscular dystrophy . The next morning , Kuroko tries to take Mikoto through an alleyway to get to the mall , but they encounter a few people passing by . They discover this is due to someone hiding envelopes containing cash cards within the alleyways , piquing people 's curiosity to search for them . After running into Ruiko , who is also on the hunt for the money cards , Mikoto overhears some Skill - Outs who have managed to locate the source of the envelopes and decides to follow them . Meanwhile , Ruiko grows curious as she had allegedly seen Mikoto at the mall , despite Mikoto never actually getting there , with Mii Konori explaining to Kazari about a rumor of there being clones of a Level 5 esper . The Skill - Outs eventually trace the envelopes back to a Nagatenjōki Academy student , demanding she hand over the other envelopes . Things get tense , however , when it appears the Skill - Outs are gradually getting killed off by the girl , who claims to be able to freely kill anyone she has touched . When Mikoto arrives on the scene , the girl , who had simply knocked out all the Skill - Outs using anesthetic and clever acting skills , recognizes her as the `` original '' .

  3 ( 27 ) 	  `` Project Radio Noise '' `` Redio Noizu Keikaku '' ( 超 電磁 砲 量産 計画 ( レディオ ノイズ けい かく ) ) 	  April 26 , 2013

  Mikoto is reminded of rumors about there being a clone of her and attempts to question the girl , who was distributing the envelopes in order to fill the alleyways that security cameras can not reach with human eyes . However , the girl leaves after inadvertently setting the building on fire whilst burning the evidence , simply stating Mikoto is better off not knowing as she would be unable to stop what was happening with her power . After saving the Skill - Outs , Mikoto looks up for information on the girl , whose name is revealed to be Shinobu Nunotaba , who actually worked at the same medical facility where she had given the scientists her DNA map years ago . Mikoto infiltrates the facility and comes across a room that is separate from the rest of the building 's network . Mikoto hacks into database there and is shocked to learn that the scientists tricked her into giving them her DNA map in order to create clones called `` Sisters '' , known as Project Radio Noise .

According to tradition , the Islamic prophet Muhammad was born in Mecca around the year 570 . His family belonged to the Quraysh . When he was about forty years old , he began receiving what Muslims consider to be divine revelations delivered through the angel Gabriel , which would later form the Quran , enjoining him to proclaim a strict monotheistic faith , warn his compatriots of the impending Judgement Day , and castigate social injustices of his city . Muhammad 's message won over a handful of followers and was met with increasing opposition from notables of Mecca . In 618 , after he lost protection with the death of his influential uncle Abu Talib , Muhammad took flight to the city of Yathrib ( subsequently called Medina ) where he was joined by his followers . Later generations would count this event , known as the hijra , as the start of the Islamic era .

Sasuke is introduced in the third chapter of Naruto 's manga as a young ninja assigned to become a member of Team 7 alongside Naruto Uzumaki and Sakura Haruno . The trio are trained under the guidance of Kakashi Hatake . Although Sasuke is antisocial , he starts caring about Naruto and Sakura . During a mission , Sasuke awakens his Sharingan -- his clan 's inherited ability to see through illusions -- which allows him to learn imperceptible movements at a superhuman rate . It is revealed later that Sasuke is the sole survivor of the once - powerful Uchiha clan of Konohagakure . He , at the age of seven , survived the massacre of his clan perpetrated by his brother , Itachi , who spared Sasuke 's life because he did not consider him worth killing . Sasuke seeks strong fighting opponents to reassure himself his power is growing .


Carbon dioxide ( CO ) - Because of its role as a greenhouse gas it has been described as `` the leading pollutant '' and `` the worst climate pollution '' . Carbon dioxide is a natural component of the atmosphere , essential for plant life and given off by the human respiratory system . This question of terminology has practical effects , for example as determining whether the U.S. Clean Air Act is deemed to regulate CO emissions . CO currently forms about 405 parts per million ( ppm ) of earth 's atmosphere , compared to about 280 ppm in pre-industrial times , and billions of metric tons of CO are emitted annually by burning of fossil fuels . CO increase in earth 's atmosphere has been accelerating .


In 610 CE , Muhammad began receiving what Muslims consider to be divine revelations . Muhammad 's message won over a handful of followers and was met with increasing opposition from notables of Mecca . In 618 , after he lost protection with the death of his influential uncle Abu Talib , Muhammad migrated to the city of Yathrib ( Medina ) . With Muhammad 's death in 632 , disagreement broke out over who would succeed him as leader of the Muslim community which was eventually resurrected leading to the First Fitna . The dispute would intensify greatly after the Battle of Karbala , in which Muhammad 's grandson Hussein ibn Ali was killed by the ruling Umayyad Caliph Yazid I , and the outcry for revenge divided the early Islamic community .

The term monkey 's uncle , most notably seen in the idiom `` ( well ) I 'll be a monkey 's uncle '' , is used to express complete surprise , amazement or disbelief . It can also be used to acknowledge the impossibility of a situation , in the same way that `` pigs might fly '' is used . An example is if one says : `` I may agree that if two plus two equals five , then I am a monkey 's uncle '' . `` I 'll be a monkey 's uncle '' has been said to date from after 1925 , the date of the widely publicized Scopes Trial in the United States , where the term first appears . The Oxford English Dictionary 's earliest example is the phrase If that 's a joke I 'm a monkey 's uncle , from an Ohio newspaper on 8 February 1925 . It was originally a sarcastic remark made by creationists . The notion `` that ( people ) were descended from apes was considered blasphemous ... by Darwin 's contemporaries '' , and it was for this reason that the sarcastic phrase came into use .


Alice Bowman ( Meg Ryan ) moves to the ( fictional ) South American country of Tecala because her engineer husband , Peter Bowman ( David Morse ) , has been hired to help build a new dam for oil company Quad Carbon .

In C plants , the first step in the light - independent reactions of photosynthesis involves the fixation of CO by the enzyme RuBisCO into 3 - phosphoglycerate . However , due to the dual carboxylase and oxygenase activity of RuBisCo , some part of the substrate is oxidized rather than carboxylated , resulting in loss of substrate and consumption of energy , in what is known as photorespiration . In order to bypass the photorespiration pathway , C plants have developed a mechanism to efficiently deliver CO to the RuBisCO enzyme . They utilize their specific leaf anatomy where chloroplasts exist not only in the mesophyll cells in the outer part of their leaves but in the bundle sheath cells as well . Instead of direct fixation to RuBisCO in the Calvin cycle , CO is incorporated into a 4 - carbon organic acid , which has the ability to regenerate CO in the chloroplasts of the bundle sheath cells . Bundle sheath cells can then utilize this CO to generate carbohydrates by the conventional C pathway .
