Why does Rubisco show relatively little preference for CO2 as a substrate over O2?

A) Both CO2 and O2 bind directly to Rubisco's active site. B) CO2 and O2 bind to RuBP,which occupies the active site; their ability to attack RuBP is roughly equal. C) Rubisco binds to a regulatory site. D) CO2 and O2 bind to a regulatory site instead of the active site. E) Both O2 and CO2 are repelled RuBP.
