Is Carpobrotus edulis a CAM plant?

It is a facultive CAM which means it can switch between C3 and CAM depending on the conditions.


In C3 plants the conservation of water promotes?

Cam stands for Crassulacean acid metabolism. C3 and C4 conserve less water than Cam plants. Actually, C4 plant capture more carbon than C3 plant. In the struggle to reduce carbon dioxide concentration in the atmosphere, genetic scientists have modified some large scale crops into C4 bases. Cam plant is wholly different from C3 and C4 and examples of are the cactus and other succulent plants in order to survive in dry dusty regions. In Cam plants, [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbon_fixation carbon fixation] occurs at night while C3 and C4 plants carry out photosynthesis during daylights.

What type of environment are most CAM plants found?

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

What is a C4 plant and a cam plant?

C4 and CAM are types of photosynthesis that differ from the standard C3 type. In C4 and CAM, the stomata, or air pores, in the leaves only open at night to minimize moisture loss from evaporation. This mechanism is common in very hot or dry climates.

Why wheat is a C3 plant?

Wheat has evolved as a C3 plant because it naturally occurs in temperate regions of the world, where the temperature is mild. In areas of the world where the temperature is high, plants with metabolisms such as C4 and CAM begin to dominate, as C3 plants are less energy efficient at high temperatures. This is because rubisco, the key protein in fixing carbon dioxide in C3 plants, is induced to dissipate the products of photosynthesis by high temperatures (a process known as photorespiration). This is a wasteful procedure that can lead to net loss of carbon from the plant. However, as C4 and CAM mechanisms for carbon dioxide fixation also require more energy, C3 plants dominate in temperate regions (and make up the majority of plant life on Earth).


What happens during the carbon fixation step of the Calvin cycle?

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.
