As temperatures increase, gases such as CO2 diffuse faster. As a result, plant leaves will lose CO2 at a faster rate than normal
3241004551 [841]

Answer:

See the answer below

Explanation:

If the amount of light reaching a leaf and the water supply is adequate in the face of inadequate carbon dioxide, the <u>latter becomes a limiting reagent in the process of photosynthesis. </u>

The process of photosynthesis has two steps

1. The light reaction

2. The light-independent reaction/the Calvin cycle

<em>Carbon dioxide is only required in the second step which is the Calvin cycle. This means that the light reaction proceeds at a normal rate but the Calvin cycle is slowed due to inadequate carbon dioxide. Overall, the rate of photosynthesis becomes limited to the amount of carbon dioxide that is available in the leaf.</em>

  • The microbes in the gut of ruminants include bacteria,fungi and protozoa
  • These microbes helps the ruminant animals to digest food,without the microbes these animals would die
