Given below are two statements
Statement I: C₃ plants are more efficient than C₄ plants in terms of carbon dioxide fixation
Statement II: C₄ plants are less water efficient and consume more amount of water then C₃ plans for same amount of CO₂ fixed.
In light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below
C₄ plants are actually more efficient than C₃ plants in terms of carbon dioxide fixation. C₄ plants have adapted a more efficient carbon fixation pathway that allows them to minimize photorespiration and increase photosynthetic efficiency, particularly in high-temperature and high-light conditions. C₄ plant loses half as much as water as a C₃ plant as C₄ plants need not to open their stomata for long to take in carbon dioxide due to high efficiency of the C₄ pathway and this reduces water loss due to transpiration. The water loss per gram of biomass produced with C₃ cycle is high (450-950). However, the water loss per gram of biomass produced with C₄ cycle is low (250-350)
