CAM plants include succulents and cacti and are specifically designed to survive in very dry, arid environments. They only open their stomata at night, thereby reducing water loss through the leaves while obtaining CO2.

C4 plants would not "survive" as well as a CAM plant in a very dry environment but they would surely do much better than C3 plants, which lose 97% of their water intake right back out of their leaves through transpiration. C4 plants fix CO2 twice instead of only once to more effectively use water.

Do mirrors affect the way plants grow?

They can, If the mirror is blocking or reflecting light for the plant, But not by it simply being present. Plants can't determine what their surroundings look like the way people and other animals do, They just picture their environment by the light, temperature, and wind, along with other things that plants require or need to avoid. There perception is based on direction and frequency.

Does plant only need water and light for photosynthesis?

No the word equation for hotosynthesis is Carbon Dioxide+Water (using sunlight and chlorophyll) [imagine there is an arrow here with sunlight and chlorophyll on the top and bottom of it] glucose and Oxygen. This means that the plant takes in Carbon Dioxide from the air, water from the ground, then converts it using sunlight and chlorophyll (photosynthesis) into glucose (its food, the purpose of photosynthesis) and Oxygen, which we breath in.
