O When they close stomatal cells, they save water but lose too much O2. O Rubisco has a higher affinity for CO2, making the rate of photosynthesis too rapid. When stomatal cells close, photorespiration increases and CO2 is lost. C3 plants have to spend energy to store carbon in a separate specialized cell.arrow_forwardImagine you are a botanist and you recently discovered a new species of plant in the unexplored regions of the Amazon Rainforest. This plant thrives in the diverse ecosystem of the Amazon and, surprisingly, can survive with limited sunlight. This unique attribute of the plant could have potential impacts on both the field of ecology and various industries. Your primary research focus is now to investigate the efficiency of photosynthesis in this plant, specifically analyzing the structure of the chloroplasts and the distribution of pigments (chlorophyll and carotenoids) utilizing microscopy techniques. Both traditional fluorescence microscopy (FM) and CSM are capable of identifying the distribution of pigments (chlorophyll and carotenoids). How does the process of stimulating fluorescence and detection vary between these two microscopy techniques? Given these differences, which method would be more likely to yield superior results for your research? Please provide your reasons, taking…arrow_forward
