Which metabolic shift occurs when limitations affect rainforest plant stomata?

💡 Explanation

Increased photorespiration results from CO₂ depletion because stomatal closure causes internal oxygen build-up and Rubisco binds oxygen rather than CO₂; therefore photorespiration increases, rather than optimizing ATP production or transpiration.
