Textbook Question
Chapter 5, Problem 8WIO
Over the past decades, the CO2 concentration in the atmosphere has increased. (a) Predict the effect of increasing carbon dioxide concentrations on photorespiration. (b) Scientists suggest that increasing CO2 concentrations are leading to higher average global temperatures. If temperatures are increasing, does this change your answer to part (a)?
