Why are light compensation points lower for shade plants?

#Unit 6. System Physiology – Plant
  1. Respiration rate in shaded plants are higher
  2. because only  a little photosynthesis is necessary to bring the net rates of CO2 exchange to negative
  3. this is because respiration rates in shade plants are very low
  4. because shaded plants ability to achieve negative CO2 uptake rates at lower PPFD values than sun plants

Use the following information to answer the question. In order to test how sea urchin sperm bind to eggs, scientists isolated the egg receptor protein that binds to the sperm acrosomal protein called bindin. Plastic beads were coated with egg receptor for bindin (ERB1) from eggs of the sea urchin Strongylocentrotus purpuratus, and then the beads mixed with sperm from S. purpuratus or from the related species, S. franciscanus. The researchers counted how many sperm were bound to each bead. The results are shown in the graph below. Treatments:

A: S. purpuratus sperm mixed with S. purpuratus ERB1 beads

B: S. purpuratus sperm mixed with beads containing no ERB1 protein

C: S. franciscanus sperm mixed with S. purpuratus ERB1 beads

D: S. franciscanus sperm mixed with beads containing no ERB1 protein
