Starch is produced in leaves through the process of photosynthesis. This process involves sunlight, carbon dioxide, and water being converted into glucose, which is then polymerized into starch for storage. The starch provides an energy reserve for the plant to use when needed.
Products such as G3P or PGAL are produced in the Calvin cycle in C3, C4, and CAM plants. Carbon fixation helps each plant adapt to the particular environment they live in. C4 plants are those such as sugarcane or grasses. CAM plants are the cactus plants or plants that live in the desert. It also helps with the production of ATP.
Most CAM plants are found in Hot and Dry climates according to my Bio book
Pineapples and cactus.
Actually plants do grow in the dark! However, they still need sunlight to capture energy in order to grow. Plants that grow in the dark are known as CAM plants. CAM plants are often found in the dessert and include cacti, cycads, lycopods, an pineapples. They capture sunlight during they day and produce carbohydrates at night. Carbohydrates are the building blocks the plants use for structural material and stored energy.
CAM plants
CAM and C4
Their stomata during the day!.
Cacti and pineapples are examples of plants that use CAM photosynthesis. CAM stands for Crassulacean Acid Metabolism, which is a type of photosynthesis adapted for arid conditions where plants open their stomata at night to minimize water loss through transpiration.
C3 due to the abundance of water. C4 and CAM plants tend to inhabit very dry environments and have adaptations that minimise photorespiration (a process that wastes ATP) and water loss.
