Answer:

Hopes this helps

Explanation:

Plants that perform C4 photosynthesis can keep their stomata closed more than their C3 equivalents because they are more efficient in incorporation CO2. This minimizes their water loss.

Explanation:

Answer

The C4 pathway is certainly more efficient than the C3 pathway in the sense of carbon fixation. This is due to two reasons. The first one is that the system does not undergo photorespiration, a process that runs counter to photosynthesis. The second one is that plants can keep their pores shut longer periods of time, thus avoiding water loss. C4 is usually saturated at relatively low CO2 concentration. Thus, C4 has greater production yields than C3 species at low concentrations.
