The presence of only PS I, not PS II, in the bundle-sheathcells of C4 plants has an effect on O2 concentration. Whatis that effect, and how might that benefit the plant?
It is the term referring to the characteristic leaf structure of C4 plants that enables them to outperform C3 plants in an environment that has high O2 concentration and/or temperature. Unlike C3 and CAM plants, C4 plants, such as corn and sugarcane, have leaves with vascular bundles that are surrounded by a chloroplast-rich vascular bundle sheath, which is further surrounded by the spongy mesophyll.
why is the phytochrome receptor of plant cells blue in color?
