If stomata close to conserve water, CO? in the leaves decreases, and O? increases, which causes the rate of photorespiration to O increase. O be minimized. O reach equilibrium. O decrease.

When the water availability of a plant's environment decreases, the plant can respond by closing its stomata. This reduces the amount of water that the plant loses through its leaves due to transpiration. Closing the stomata also reduces the amount of carbon dioxide that the plant can take in through its leaves, which will most likely result in A. a decreased rate of photosynthesis. B. no change in the cellular processes of the plant. C. an increased rate of photosynthesis. D. an increased rate of cellular respiration.

On a hot, dry afternoon, this graph tracks a bean plant's stomata over 24 hours. The dotted line indicates partial closing of stomata. a. How would partial closing affect CO2 and O2 concentrations within the leaf? Closing of stomata will decrease both CO2 and O2 concentrations within the leaf due to photorespiration. b. What would be the impact on photosynthesis and photorespiration? Both photosynthesis and photorespiration will be reduced.

The effect of carbon dioxide concentration & temperature on the rate of photosynthesis a. Explain your understanding from the graph above. b. On a hot, dry day, plants close their stomata to conserve water. Explain the connection between the oxidation of water in photosystem II of the light-dependent reactions and the synthesis of glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate (G3PA) in the light-independent reactions. Predict the effect of closed stomata on the synthesis of G3PA and justify the prediction.
