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.

In what kinds of environments would you expect to find C3, C4, or CAM plants?
What is the advantage of the C4 pathway when CO2 concentrations are low?
In habitats where water conservation is not especially necessary, is CAM metabolism more or less advantageous than C3 or C4 metabolism? Why?
Despite CAM photosynthesis having a comparatively higher water use efficiency relative to C3 and
C4 plants, its distribution is restricted primarily to desert succulents. In terms of water use
efficiency, explain why CAM photosynthesis has not spread more widely.

- Discuss Concepts Concerns about global climate change and the greenhouse effect center on rising levels of greenhouse gases, including atmospheric carbon dioxide. 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_forwardA 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.

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_forward

- Respond 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_forwardMicrosoft Office Ho...

Gmailarrow_forwardSuppose you are conducting an experiment, in which you selectively lower the CO2 and O2 concentrations in the two experimental groups. The control group reflects conditions of the current atmosphere. You grow C3, C4 and CAM plants under these conditions and all other variables (soil, water, etc.) are identical in all groups. Plants are regularly watered and grown at cool temperatures. The table gives an overview of the treatment & control groups and the types of plants grown. You don't yet have results on plant growth (data cells are intentionally empty).
