Correct option is C. Inhibits growth Atmospheric carbon dioxide is used by plants to produced food. Due to industrialization, large amount of carbon dioxide is released in the atmosphere. This CO$$_2$$ provides nutrient source to certain plants. However, excess amount of CO$$_2$$ inhibits growth in plants. It inhibits nitrate assimilation in certain plants. It basically inhibits absorption of nitrogen.
