photorespiration
process where rubisco binds O₂ instead of CO₂
photorespiration cause
stomata close on hot days to prevent water loss
photorespiration effect on gases
CO₂ decreases and O₂ increases inside the leaf
rubisco oxygenase activity
rubisco binds O₂ when CO₂ levels drop
photorespiration energy use
uses ATP but produces no sugar
photorespiration consequence
no carbon fixed so no sugar is made
photorespiration impact
harmful to plant growth and efficiency
