co2 is incorporated into 4 carbon compound when it enters leaves
a c3 plant has a 3 carbon molecule which joins the Kreb's cycle while the c4 plant has a 4 carbon molecule.
c02 is incorporated into four carbon compound when it enters leaves
C-4 stands for Composition 4. This probably means that when explosives manufacturers were creating this particular compound, it was the 4th in the series.
The major advantage that C4 plants have over C3 plants, is that they lose less water than that of C3 plants.
They "fix" CO2 into a 4 carbon compound (oxaloacetate) before entering the Calvin-Benson Cycle.
Can live at agreater range of conditions.
C3 and C4 plants are named after the number of carbon molecules in the first products of their carbon fixation cycles. C3 plants produce 3-phosphoglycerate and C4 plants produce Oxaloacetate.
The C4 plants tend to keep their stomata closed during the day to conserve water.
The plants which live in water are aquatic plants.
C4 plants have concentric rings of mesophyll cells around vascular bundle sheath in the leaves.
c4 plants have first product of calvin cycle is oxaloacetic acid but in c3 plants is phospfoglyceric acid
C3 and C4 plants are named after the number of carbon molecules in the first products of their carbon fixation cycles. C3 plants produce 3-phosphoglycerate and C4 plants produce Oxaloacetate.
Since C4 plants need for CO2 is more than C3 plants, doubling the concentration of CO2 will have more positive effect on C4 plants. If CO2 is a limiting factor for photosynthesis, both C3 & C4 plants will have positive effect.
Around 50ppm for C3 plants and around 5ppm for C4 plants.
C4 plants that use the C4 pathway require more ATP and NADPH
The C4 plants tend to keep their stomata closed during the day to conserve water.

Technically, the answer is no because it does not have the anatomical structure of C4 plants. However, it has adaptation similar to C4 plants with regard to carbon dioxide use efficiency. (Ref. Mineral nutrition of higher plants : 2nd edt : pg 140)
C3
yes more like c4 plants
