Answer» Correct Answer - B `CO_(2)` compensation poin t or threshold value is that concentration of `CO_(2)` at which illuminated plant parts parts stop absorbing carbon dioxide from their enviroment. At this value, `CO_(2)` fixed in photosynthesis is equal to `CO_(2)` evolved in respiration and photorespiration. The value is 25-100 ppm compensation value for `C_(4)` plants is the greater efficiency of `CO_(2)`-fixation through PEP-carboxylase. The optimum `CO_(2)` concentration for `C_(4)` plants is 360 ppm and for `C_(3)` plants, it is 50ppm. |
