Assertion. The atmospheric concentration of CO_(2) at which photosynthesis just compensates for resoiration is referred to as CO_(2) compensation point. Reason. CO_(2) -compensation point is reached when the amount of CO_(2) uptake is less than that generated through respiration because the level of CO_(2) is more than that required for achieving CO_(2) -compensation point.
