• Hot, dry days what happens?• Inside leaf?
– O2 increases
– CO2 drops
• PS rate?

Question of the Day
Scientists at Stanford University conducted a study on California grasslands. They looked at the effects of increased levels of CO2 , soil nitrogen, and temperature (modeling our future) on plant growth. What did they find?
