why does the green plants start evolving co2 instaed of oxygen in a whole summer da
huryyyyyyyyyyy fast

y?

Plants perform photosynthesis in day by fixing CO2 (reducing it to a sugar; glucose) in the presence of sunlight and evolve Oxygen gas.

But if the temperatures are too high as in summer and more intensity of light the rate of photosynthesis increases leading to a marked rise in oxygen concentration.

Due to this increase in O2 concentration, the plants undergo Oxidation through a photo respiratory cycle . In this photo respiration the plants lose CO2 instead of oxygen
