C4-type plants seem more suitable than C3-type plants Since they escape photorespiration. Yet there are only 5% of the 260,000 known plant species that are of type C4. Why didn't C4 plants dominate C3 during evolution?

C4-type plants seem more suitable than C3-type plants
Since they escape photorespiration. Yet there are only 5% of the 260,000 known plant species that are of type C4. Why didn't C4 plants dominate C3 during evolution?
Expert Solution
Step 1
Some plants have evolved an adaptation that reduces photorespiration. C4 photosynthesis, which combines carbon dioxide into a four-carbon molecule before entering the Calvin cycle, is used by these plants(C4 plants).
