Question

Why plants can afford to have lower rate of respiration?

Answer 1

Aerobic respiration continues all the time in plant cells, using up oxygen and making carbon dioxide. ... Below this level carbohydrates are used up and the plant cannot grow. Shade plants tend to have lower compensation points than sun plants because they have lower respiration rates and can absorb light more efficiently.
