Which is NOT an evolutionary adaptation of plants to minimize the costs of photorespiration while also conserving water on hot days?   a. Use more ATP to incorporate CO2 into organic compounds, which increases CO2 concentration in the cell.   b. Confine the Calvin cycle to specific cells in order to prevent inefficient rubisco binding and net energy loss.   c. Binding O2 to rubisco instead of CO2.   d. Uptake CO2 only at night and use ATP to fix it into organic acid for later use during the light reactions, which prevents water loss during the day.
