The rate of respiration in plant cells can be increased due to increase in atmospheric carbon (II) oxide. The enchanced respiration enables a plant to support greater transport of sugars from leaves to other growing parts of the plant such as roots,stems and branches, including the seeds, thus elevating its cell reapiratory rate.
