Yes. Leaves become less efficient as they age and the plant kills them off. Most obviously, a deciduous tree will also kill and shed its leaves in the autumn when the reduced light means that it is no longer worthwhile to keep them alive.

There is a lot of variation between plants.

How does carbon dioxide influence how plants produce glucose?

Carbon dioxide levels influence how many sugars(glucose) a plant can produce greatly. This is because 6 molecules of water and 6 molecules of carbon dioxide will release a sugar through series of reactions. So if you have many carbon dioxide molecules it makes it a lot easier for a plant or any other photoautotroph.


Why there is difference in the amount of carbon dioxide you inhale and exhale?

The amount of carbon dioxide exhaled is always greater than the amount inhaled because part of the oxygen inhaled is converted into carbon dioxide by metabolic processes of digestion, while any carbon dioxide inhaled remains unchanged in the body and is always exhaled again.
