Chapter 37.4, Problem 1LO
Summary Introduction
To predict: The effect of increased atmospheric carbon dioxide on the rate of photosynthesis in C3 plants.
Introduction: The plants are mainly multicellular, predominantly photosynthetic eukaryotes of the kingdom Plantae. The C3 plant utilizes the C3 carbon fixation pathway as the sole mechanism to convert CO2 into an organic compound. Some examples of C3 plants include weedy plants, deciduous trees, and evergreen trees.
