- Consider the relationship between temperature and photosynthesis. As temperatures increase,gases such as CO2 diffuse faster. As a result, plant leaves will lose CO2 at a faster rate thannormal. If the amount of light reaching the leaf and the amount of water available are adequate,predict how this loss of gas will affect photosynthesis in the leaf.arrow_forwardWhich option describes photoperiodism? time of the day when light shines with the most intensity amount of light needed by a plant to exhibit normal growth biological response of a plant to a change in the length of daylight relative to darkness duration of flowering in a plant the light phase of photosynthesis during which photolysis of water occursarrow_forwardResearch about C3, C4, and CAM pathways.

Explain.arrow_forwardSUBJECT: GENERAL BIOLOGY 1 / CAM and C4 Photosynthesis Plant adaptation is varied among all organisms present on Earth’s fauna. Also, we can’t deny the fact that as time goes by, the amount of carbon rises making it more complicated for the rest of organisms to adapt and survive. In relation to their specialized features, predict how C4 and CAM plants will each respond to a doubling of the concentration of CO2 in the atmosphere.arrow_forwardDescribe how and where photosynthesis takes place within a plantarrow_forward
