Answer» Solution :By looking at a plant externally, it is not possible to tell whether a plant is `C_(3) or C_(4)`however PLANTS which are adapted to dry tropical regions have the `C_(4)`pathways. Such plants are able to tolerate high temperature and exhibit marked responses towards light intensities `C_(4)`plants also have a greater PRODUCTIVITY of biomass. However externally `C_(4)`plants do no show any SPECIAL characteristics.
