A) The concentration of CO2 is lower inside a plant cell than in the atmosphere (outside the cell). In your own words, describe how the CO2 levels are kept low inside the plant cell and explain why this is necessary. Assume stomata are open. B) Regarding the situation presented in Part A and assuming that the stomata of the plant leaves are closed, would this favour the induction of photorespiration in a C3 plant? Explain. Make reference to relevant molecule or molecules as needed. Please clearly label your responses as A and B

Under conditions of very high light intensity, excess absorbed solar energy is dissipated by the action of photoprotective proteins in the thylakoid membrane. Explain why it is advantageous for these proteins to be activated by buildup of the proton gradient across the membrane.

Experiments to address the day-night discrepancy in warming (see Pic5) indicate that climate change has inhibited plant growth in warm dry areas more than in cool wet areas. Explain this observation.
