Which statement is accurate about how C₄ plants are able to survive hot, dry spells during the growing season? A) When the stomata close during heat stress, RuBP carboxylase is not exposed to the increase in oxygen . concentration experienced in the leaf. This allows the plant to avoid trying to use oxygen. B) When the stomata close during heat stress, RuBP carboxylase is exposed to the increase in oxygen Concentration experienced in the leaf. This allows the plant to avoid trying to use oxygen. C) When the stomata open during heat stress, RuBP carboxylase is not exposed to the increase in oxygen concentration experienced in the leaf. This allows the plant to avoid trying to use oxygen. D) When the stomata close during heat stress, RuBP carboxylase is exposed to the increase in oxygen Concentration experienced in the leaf. This allows the plant to use oxygen for photosynthesis. E) When the stomata open during heat stress, RuBP carboxylase is not exposed to the increase in oxygen

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

concentration experienced in the leaf. This allows the plant to use oxygen for photosynthesis.C₄ plants have an advantage in hot, dry climates because the stomata will close in response to heat stress.This prevents RuBP carboxylase from being exposed to oxygen in the leaf and using it for photosynthesis.
