Answer:

C3 plants are adapted to moderate temperatures and sunlight. C3 carbon fixation is the process used for most plants. In C3 carbon fixation, carbon dioxide first combines with a 3-carbon compound while in C4 carbon fixation, carbon dioxide first combines with a 4-carbon compound. Plant stomata are open during the day in both types of carbon fixation. In C3 plants, carbon fixation occurs throughout the leaf. The 4-carbon compound made in plants using C4 carbon fixation is used to deliver carbon dioxide to inner cells of the leaf.

Carbon fixation is the process in which plants remove the carbon from atmospheric carbon dioxide and turn it into organic molecules like carbohydrates.

Because different type of plants are located in regions with different conditions they are different types of carbon fixation.  Plants that live in arid regions need to conserve water, while plants that live in more moist conditions will not need to conserve water.

The carbon fixation in C3 plants is one-step process. An oxidation reaction occurs because of the enzyme RuBisCo.  During the oxidation some of the energy used in photosynthesis is lost in a process known as photorespiration.

Answer:

the process that would make them go as dark or light would be because they and blend in better to no the eaten it is called "latrell Selection" so in the Beach mice would stay light because they look like sand but if they were dark they would be easy to see that is why they are not there same thing for the forest but the other way around

if the forest changed to more sandy it would let lighter mice live there to but the dark mice would still live because it is not all sand i like it would be equal amount of dark and light mice because they would both have there spot to hide and just as vulnerable if the switched spots
