Answer»

SOLUTION :The benefits of `C_(4)` plants are shown below.
(i) These plants can do photosynthesis in atmosphere with LESS concentrationof `CO_(2)` and in water source conditio.
These plants can tolerate temperature and concentraton of `O_(2)`. Ifhas an enzyme named PEP CARBOXYLASE which is INSENSITIVE for `O_(2)` so no photorespiration and Glucose molecule is formed by losing `CO_(2)` FIXATION.
So `C_(4)` plants are better than `C_(3)` plants.
