The correct answer is C. Weathering

Explanation:

The term "weathering" refers to the breaking down or alteration of rocks, minerals and similar that are on the surface. This occurs due to different factors such as physical forces for example pressure or air; chemical reactions such as extreme temperatures or due to organisms. Additionally, weathering leads to changes on rocks and in general terms on soil and the surface. Also, this differs from erosion because it does not imply the movement of oil or rocks but occurs in one place. According to this, it is weathering the term that describes the breaking down and changing of rocks.

In C3 plants the conservation of water promotes _____.
telo118 [61]

Answer:

The correct option is d. In C3 plants the conservation of water promotes photorespiration.

Explanation:

Photorespiration is a metabolic pathway that leads to the loss of half the carbon fixed by photosynthesis, it occurs when the rubisco enzyme (which is responsible for carrying out the carbon fixation) of the Calvin cycle acts on oxygen instead of dioxide carbon. Photorespiration occurs in C3 plants, (considered C3, by the three carbon compound) when the CO2 concentration is reduced. The first step of the Calvin cycle is the fixation of carbon dioxide by rubisco, but at low concentrations of CO2, oxygen begins to be set in place. In conditions of moderate temperatures when C3 plants have enough water, the carbon dioxide supply is abundant and photorespiration is not a problem.
