Photosynthesis in Higher PlantsHard
Question
A very efficient converter of solar energy with net productivity of 2-4 kg / m2 or more is the crop of
Options
A.wheat
B.sugarcane
C.rice
D.bajra
Solution
In C4 -plants, eg, maize, sugarcane, sorghum, optimum temperature of photosynthesis is 30 - 45o C. In C4 -plants, rate of net photosynthesis at full sunlight is (40 - 80 mgCO2/dm2/hr) which is more than the rate of net photosynthesis (15 - 35 mg CO2/dm2/hr) at optimum sunlight in C3-plants.
