Summary Introduction
Introduction: Carbon dioxide (CO2) is a vital element for the plants to undergo photosynthesis. It is converted into energy by the green plants. It is present in the atmosphere abundantly in the form of gas. The plants use energy from the sunlight to unite with water and CO2 that stores energy. The oxygen is the byproduct of this reaction called photosynthesis, which is released into the atmosphere.

- The increase in air CO2 concentration leads to global warming and extreme weather. What are the effects of the factors listed below on photosynthesis? Which plants (C3 or C4) have an advantage? a- Increased CO2 concentration b- High temperature c- droughts Need answer in short and ASAP please . Thank you.arrow_forwardPropose a hypothesis on how each of these variables affects the production of oxygen from a plant. 1. Increasing light intensity 2.Increasing CO2 levels 3.Increasing temperature 4.How does light intensity affect the rate of photosynthesis?arrow_forwardThere is a trade-off between photosynthesis and transpiration in leaves because (a) numerous stomatal pores provide both gas exchange for photosynthesis and openings through which water vapor escapes (b) a waxy layer, the cuticle, reduces water loss (c) blue light triggers an influx of potassium ions (K+) into the guard cells (d) leaves of deciduous plants abscise as winter approaches in temperate climates (e) stomata are closed at night, although water continues to move into the roots by osmosisarrow_forward

A. It would increase the rate of photosynthesis because of the increased production of food. B. It would limit the amount water plants are able to take in, resulting in a slower rate of photosynthesis. C.
