|
If carbon dioxide is completely removed from a plant’s environment, what would you expect to happen to the plant’s production of high-energy sugars (rate of photosynthesis)?
|
|
Sugar production will likely increase.
|
|
|
Sugars will not be produced.
|
|
|
The rate of sugar production will decrease .
|
|
|
Fewer sugars will be produced at first, but then the plant will recover.

Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -The same number of sugars will be produced but without carbon dioxide. Carbon dioxide does not affect the production of high-energy sugars in plants.
Detailed explanation-2: -Answer and Explanation: If there were no more plants on Earth the carbon cycle would become unbalanced and too much carbon would be in the atmosphere. Trees remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere during the process of photosynthesis.
