Question
Chapter 10.5, Problem 3CC
Summary Introduction
To find: The similarity or common factor between ocean acidification and distribution of C3 and C4 plants.
Introduction: The plants that exhibit the C3 pathway are the C3 plants. Such types of plants conduct the Calvin cycle during the dark reaction of photosynthesis. Again, the C4 plants exhibit the Hatch-Slack pathway during the dark reaction.

A team of researchers
investigated the effects of
phosphorous availability and
light intensity on an
angiosperm species. Seeds
of the angiosperm were
divided into four equal
groups. Groups 1 and 2 were
exposed to 200 µmol, and
Groups 3 and 4 were
exposed to 500 µmol.
Groups 2 and 4 also received
a phosphorous (P) solution.
After 20 days, all plants were
weighed, and the average
dry weight of each group
was calculated. The results
are in the table below.

- Photosynthesis directly opposes respiration in determining how plants influence atmospheric CO2 concentrations. When a leaf is in the light, both photosynthesis and respiration are occurring simultaneously. The data in the Table were collected from the leaf of a sagebrush plant that was enclosed in a chamber that measures the rate of CO2 exchange. The same leaf was used to collect the data in Interpret the Data in Chapter 7. Respiration is shown as a negative and photosynthesis as a positive rate of CO2 exchange. The net photosynthesis rate is the amount of CO2 (in micromoles per square meter per second) assimilated by the leaf while respiration is occurring; a positive value indicates more photosynthesis is occurring than respiration. The light exposed to the leaf is quantified as the number of photons in the 400 to 700 nm wavelength, the photosynthetic photon flux density (PPFD); 2,000 mol/m2/s is equivalent to the amount of light occurring at midday in full Sun.

Movement of water in transpiration requires both adhesion to the conducting walls and wood fibers of the plant and cohesion of the molecules to each other. A scientist wanted to increase the rate of transpiration of a crop species to extend its range into warmer climates. The scientist substituted a nonpolar solution with an atomic mass similar to that of water for hydrating the plants. What do you expect the scientist's data will indicate from this experiment? The rate of transpiration will be the same for both water and the nonpolar substance. Transpiration rates will fall to zero as nonpolar compounds do not have the properties necessary for adhesion and cohesion. Transpiration rates will increase as nonpolar compounds undergo adhesion and cohesion with wood fibers more readily than water. The rate of transpiration will be slightly lower with the nonpolar substance as the plant will not have evolved with the nonpolar…arrow_forward

- Part B Photosynthesis plays an important role in maintaining life in most ecosystems on Earth because it has an impact on how organisms obtain their energy. In your science journal, write a claim that supports the idea that photosynthesis helps sustain life on Earth, and support that claim with at least one piece of evidence. Use the rubric below to assist you with your response. Criteria Scale Makes Claim about Photosynthesis and Supports Claim with Evidence 2 This response includes both a claim about photosynthesis and its importance, and supports the claim with one piece of factual evidence. 1 This response either lacks both a claim and a piece of evidence, or contains a faulty claim or irrelevant/faulty evidence. 0 This response lacks the required components for partial credit.arrow_forwardDespite CAM photosynthesis having a comparatively higher water use efficiency relative to C3 and C4 plants, its distribution is restricted primarily to desert succulents.
