SUBJECT: 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.

- 1p Terrestrial plants have stomata on the surface of their leaves. A single stoma is surrounded by two guard cells that change shape in response to environmental factors and open or close the stoma. Which of the following best explains how the structure of the leaf is used in processes that occur in the plant? * Water enters the plant through the surface of the leaf for transpiration. O Gases for photosynthesis are exchanged through the surface of the leaf. O Micronutrients are taken in through the microscopic stoma O Energy for cellular reproduction is absorbed through the surface of the leaf.

- Part F - How to determine transpiration rates by the whole plant method Which of the following best explains why the plant in front of the fan lost more mass than the control plant in normal room conditions? The leaves of the plant in front of the fan had the highest initial water potential and therefore lost the most water. The control plant had lower initial water potential in the root area and therefore lost less water. The control plant had a lower initial mass and so lost water at a decreased rate. The fan rapidly moves water molecules away from the leaf surface, lowering the water potential.arrow_forward10. Observe the graph on the right.

Plants use CO for 2 photosynthesis, and laboratory studies suggest that increasedCO2 levels could cause a rise in photosynthetic activity. However, as one environmentalist noted, What plants do in environmental chambers may not happen in nature, where there are many other interacting variables. Strictly from the standpoint of physiological effects, what are some possible ramifications of a rapid doubling of atmospheric CO2 on plants in temperate environments? In arid environments?arrow_forward
