Solution

The correct option is B C3 plants
Carbon dioxide is a limiting factor to photosynthesis. Both C₃ and C₄ plants react differently to different concentrations of CO₂.
At high intensities of CO₂, both C₃ and C₄ plants sow an increase in the rate of photosynthesis. But the C₃ plants show saturation at 450μIL and have higher compensation point and show increased yields when subjected to CO₂ rich environment.
So, the correct option is 'C₃ plants'
