Assertion: Tropical plants have a higher optimum temperature for photsynthesis than temperate plants
Reason: The temperature optimum for photosynthesis of different plants depends on their habitat.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
The optimum temperature is `10^(@)-25^(@)C` for `C_(3)` plants and `30-45^(@)C` for `C_(4)` plants. The temperature optimum for photosynthesis of different plants alos depends on habitat that they are adapted to Tropical plants have a higher temperature optimum than the plants adapted to temprate climates.
