If the plants transpire more when the light is more intense, and to determine the effect of temperature and humidity on the rate of transpiration Introduction: Transpiration is the passage of water through the plants through vascular bundles. Through transpiration, the rate of water uptake is regulated and the plant also cools down. The water is lost into the atmosphere through the stomatal opening when the tension of the cells rises.

In hot, dry climates, plants have evolved mechanisms to avoid photorespiration. Which of the following is FALSE Select an answer and submit. For keyboard navigation, use the up/down arrow keys to select an answer. a b с d e C3 plants have no mechanism to avoid photorespiration C4 plants reduce photorespiration by separating the light reaction in the mesophyll cells from the light- independent reaction in the bundle-sheath cells CAM plants minimize photorespiration by collecting and storing CO2 at night and keeping their stomata closed during the day C4 plants include corn, sugarcane, and many grasses CAM plants can undergo photophosphorylation in the absence of sunlight Open in Readir

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
