Explain how C4 plants avoid photorespiration (briefly describe
what is different from C3 plants) & provide an example of a C4
plant.
Explain how CAM plants avoid photorespiration (briefly describe
what is different from C3 plants) & provide an example of a CAM
plant.
Diagram and describe photorespiration. Why does it occur?
Diagram and describe the C4 and CAM pathways and explain how they
reduce photorespiration. Why don’t all plants use these
pathways?
(no bullet points, essay format)
Most plants are what are called C3 plants. They have not evolved
mechanisms to avoid photorespiration. C4 and CAM plants have
mechanisms to decrease the likelihood of photorespiration occuring.
Briefly describe how each type of plants avoids
photorespiration.
What are the end products of photosynthesis in C4 and CAM
plants
Group of answer choices
a,Oxaloacetate and pyruvate
b.water and crassulacean acid
c.oxygen and carbohydrate
d.carbohydrate and Oxaloacetate
2.During which of the following human cell cycles does a cell
go from 2N to 1N?
Group of answer choices
a.Meiosis I
b.Meiosis II
c.Mitosis
d.None of the above
3.The MAJOR reason that aerobes cannot live in the absence of
oxygen is that
Group of answer choices
a.The Citric Acid cycle...
Discuss similarities and differences between C3, C4, and CAM
plants using examples of each. How does the environment each type
is found in relate to their respective differences in
photosynthesis?
In only 3 sentences, compare and contrast the following:
a) CAM and C4 plants
b) Micronutrients and macronutrients (with examples)
c) Apical meristems and lateral meristems
Compare the mechanisms that C3, C4, and
CAM plants use to obtain and use carbon dioxide.
Why would you expect photorespiration on a hot, dry day to occur
less in C4 and CAM plants than in C3
plants?
