Most plants respond to elevated atmospheric carbon dioxide by increasing their photosynthetic rate.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Most studies have shown that an increase in atmospheric carbon dioxide levels results in an increase in photosynthetic rate in plants, known as the CO2 fertilization effect. This is because carbon dioxide is one of the essential inputs for the process of photosynthesis. However, there may be other factors that can limit or offset this effect, such as nutrient availability and temperature.
