The herbaceous plant Achillea lanulosa is widespread in the Northern Hemisphere. Phenotypic variation in the species has been extensively studied along an altitudinal gradient from sea level to over 3,000 meters. In California there is conspicuous variation in height; alpine plants are only several centimeters tall while those in the San Joaquin Valley may reach a height of 1.8 meters. Adaptation to different local environments also results in variation in physiological processes such as photosynthetic rate, resistance to cold, and the timing of dormancy.
The morphological variation shown by Achillea lanulosa illustrates

Light-response curves of photosynthetic carbon
fixation in sun and shade plants. Typically, shade plants have a low light
compensation point and have lower maximum photosynthetic rates than sun plants
this is because respiration rates in shade plants are very low; which of the
following graph is correct?
