Photorespiration occurs wherever there is ___
Definition
Rubisco
Term
Chemical formula for Photorespiration
Definition
ATP + NADPH + O2 =
CO2 + NADP+ + ADP + Pi
Term
Why is photorespiration a problem for plants?
Definition
It is a waste of energy.
It wastes energy by not producing a cycle
Term
What conditions would encourage photorespiration to occur?
Definition
When low CO2 & high levels of O2 are around, Rubisco uses O2 to stick on Carbon atoms & it froms CO2 instead of G3P
Term
