Under which of the following conditions would photosynthesis be favored over photorespiration? A) a high concentration of O₂ within the spongy mesophyll of a plant’s leaves B) a sunny and windy day in an arid environment C) a high concentration of CO₂ within the spongy mesophyll of a plant’s leaves D) the majority of stomata on a plant’s leaves are closed

the correct answer is C

Explanation:

It is the correct answer since the variations or the partial pressures of CO2 increase the plants that begin to carry out the photosynthesis processes generating as a product 02, the climatic conditions also condition this process, but it is very specific and not correct to say that it only depends of the sunny day, or of the arid climate, since there are plants that subsist and can say this process in extreme climates, humid or rainy.

c. earths continental crust is thicker than its lithosphere.

because, the lithosphere is the outermost layer of the earth/ 100 km thick and is defined by its machanical properties.the lithosphere contains oceanic and continental crust that varies in age and thickness across locations and geologic time. the lithosphere is the coolest layer of the earth in terms of temperature. the term lithosphere should not be confused with the use of "geosphere" which is used to indicate all of earth systems, including the atmosphere, hydrosphere   and biosphere. the surface of the earth can be divided into the continental crust and the oceanic crust.   the continental crust is made mostly of granite while the oceanic crust is made of basalt. the average thickness of the continental crust is 25 miles and the average thickness of the oceanic crust is 5 miles.   three types of rock, igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic, make up the surface of the earth. that's why 3 option is preferable.
