C4-plants are more efficient in photosynthesis than C3-plants due to:

1. higher leaf area
2. presence of larger number of chloroplasts in the leaf cells
3. presence of thin cuticle
4. lower rate of photorespiration

The C4-plants are photosynthetically more efficient than C3-plants because:
1. the CO2 compensation point is more
2. CO2 generated during photorespiration is trapped and recycled through PEP carboxylase
3. The CO2 efflux is not prevented
4. They have more chloroplasts
