Textbook Question
Chapter 10.4, Problem 3CC
MAKE CONNECTIONS → Refer to the discussion of ocean acidification in Concept 3.3. Ocean acidification and changes in the distribution of C3 and C4 plants may seem to be two very different problems, but what do they have in common? Explain.

MAKE CONNECTIONS Describe the relationship between pH andacidity. (See Concept 3.3.) Overall, is the precipitation in this forest becomingmore acidic or less acidic?
MAKE CONNECTIONS As noted in Figure 52.15, theaddition of nutrients to a lake can cause an algal bloom.When these algae die, complex molecules in their bodiesare broken down by decomposers using aerobic respiration. Explain why this would reduce the lake’s oxygenlevels (see Concept 9.1)
MAKE CONNECTIONS Review the discussion of feedback regulation in Concept 1.1. Could effects of globalwarming on peatlands alter CO2 concentrations in waysthat result in negative or positive feedback? Explain.

- WHAT IF? The main product of fossil fuel combustion is CO2 , and thisis the source of the increase in atmospheric CO2 concentration. Scientistshave proposed strategically situating containers of these algae near industrialplants or near highly congested city streets. Considering the process ofphotosynthesis, how does this arrangement make sense?arrow_forwardThinking Analytically Is phytoplankton productivity highest at the ocean surface? What advantage would optimum productivity at a depth below the surface provide to phytoplankton?arrow_forwardMAKE CONNECTIONS There are vast stores of organicmatter in the soils of northern coniferous forests andtundra around the world. Suggest an explanation forwhy scientists who study global warming are closelymonitoring these stores (see Figure 55.14).arrow_forward
- ECOLOGY HELP ECOLOGY HELP According to these maps, as temperature and precipitation increases tremendously in the Midwestern United States, what will be the best photosynthetic pathway for crops, C4 or CAM?arrow_forwardRespond to the following questions. Why might it seem surprising that green light can drive any photosynthesis, given that chlorophyll, the major photosynthetic pigment, is green? How can it do this? Suppose that CO2 levels were to rise to 600 ppm, which in fact probably was their level about 300 million years ago. What effect would you suppose that might have regarding competition between C3 and C4 plants? In other words, which of the two kinds of plants would the change favour and why?arrow_forwardMAKE CONNECTIONS Focusing just on the effects oftemperature, would you expect the global distributionof C4 plants to expand or contract as Earth becomeswarmer? Why? (See Concept 10.4.)arrow_forward

In the first model diagram the sources and sinks of carbon in a natural, pre-industrial landscape. In the second model, diagram the sources and sinks of carbon in a landscape altered by human activity and industry. Finally, write a few short sentences on what you would expect the atmospheric levels of CO2 to be in each model and why they would or would not be similar.arrow_forward
