Answer:

C.

Explanation:

Higher temperatures leads to higher growth rates this is because, as the temperature increases, the plants have more needs to respire leading to more cellular activities and release of more carbonioxide. The increase in atmospheric carbondioxide and cellular activities leads to increase in plant growth. However, it should be noted that the increase in temperature shouldn't go beyond a certain level as it can also cause adverse effects of crops.
