Which growth impediment emerges when C4 photosynthesis underperforms?

💡 Explanation

The consequence involves diminished growth because, without the C4 pathway’s increased efficiency to deliver concentrated CO2 to Rubisco, the carbon reallocation overhead for futile cycles becomes inefficient; therefore C4 plants require more resources rather than optimal gain without the pathway.
