Most CAM plants are found in Hot and Dry climates according to my Bio book
Xerophytes: plants that are adapted to live in very dry climates
because vascular plants have waterproof layers that reduces water loss so they can live in hot, dry places as well as damp conditions.
Cacti, pineapples, agaves, and geraniums are some plants that are adapted to hot, dry conditions. They would all survive well in the desert.
Deserts are abiotic because there is much that is not living in them. Plants have adapted to live on very little water, store water, and live in very hot and dry conditions.
The plants that grow in hot and dry conditions are called xerophytic plants. Water conservation is key to their survival. So, they have innovated a new protocol of photosynthesis called CAM pathway, i.e., Crassulacean acid metabolism. In this pathway, such plants keep their stomata open in night to take up CO2 while their stomata remain closed during the day in order to avoid transpiration. In the daytime, they synthesize glucose from CO2.
Hi the only species of plant that grow in dry soil are the cactae species , these species are used to growing in very dry conditions as they originate from many dry places such as deserts, they get there moisture to grow through absorbing it thourgh water vapour , water in the air
Mainly the plants which can live without water for a longer period of time and can resists dryness in air. Eg: cactus, palmMainly plants that look dry on the insideAnd a Joshua tree
By developing xerophytic characters.
Dry, dry, dry. Some place like AZ.
There are three main groups of photosynthesis: C3, C4, and CAM CAM plants are able to absorb CO2 from the air during nighttime (which helps them save water) and bind it to sugars during the daytime without losing additional water. This method is 50 times more efficient at saving water then C3 however it is significantly slower. please add an example of a CAM plant
Pandas live in a dry area because that is where bamboo is grown which is what the mostly eat along with other plants.
