Most types of photosynthesis (C3 & C4) occur only during the day, however plants that use CAM photosynthesis open their stomata during the night to take in the gases essential for photosynthesis withoug losing the water in the cells. They then use the CO2 to produce glucose throughout the day.

There are two types of Photosynthesis.
Light Dependent, which is what we comely know as plants collecting sun light, carbon, and water during the day time.
The second type is Light Independent, which can occur at night and uses the produced chemicals of light-dependent reactions to fix carbon dioxide and produce the carbohydrates plants need to survive.
Also being called Calvin Cycle or Dark Reactions

What is the purpose of a two-step photosynthesis process in which carbon dioxide is collected at night and then processed by day?
less water is lost during the night
What happens to a plant in the dark?
Since plants conduct photosynthesis during the day, the glucose which they make during the day or when the sun is present is used in cellular respiration during the night. In addition, the energy they have stored during the day is just used for survival at night.
Do plants photosynthesize during the day and night?
Photosynthesis needs sunlight to take place so one could safely say no.
Why is the size of stoma smaller in the night?
stomata only open during the day and close at night becasue plants only photosynthesis during the day cos they need the sun which isn't visible at night.
Where does photosynthesis happen in a plant cell?
Photosynthesis occurs within the chloroplasts in plant cells.
Does photosynthesis happen in the night or day?
day
Does phtosynthesis happen at night?
No, because for Photosynthesis to happen it needs light to give it energy for it to happen, and at night there is nolight.
Does night and day affect cellular respiration in a plant?
No, respiration is continuous. Photosynthesis stops at night, as it is light dependent.
Why cactus do photosynthesis in night not in day?
Some cactus flower at night as they are pollinated by moths and other nightflying insects.
Why does photosynthesis not continue during the night like cellular respiration does?
plants respire during the day as well the rate of respiration is lower than the rate of photosynthesis in the day
Do plants absorb more carbon dioxide at day or night?
The photosynthesis process that occurs at night is called the light-independent reaction, or the calvin cycle. It is a process that utilizes the materials created in the light dependent reaction, ( the process that requires light) and CO2 to produce carbohydrates and oxygen.
What relationship between photosynthesis and photo respiration?
Photosynthesis is the process of turning carbon dioxide and water (using light) into energy and oxygen. This process happen in autotrophic cells during the day. At night they go through respiration where they turn oxygen into carbon dioxide.
What will happen to the amount of carbon dioxide buring nightime?
The carbon dioxide produced during respiration during day time is used up for photosynthesis. However during night, the rate of respiration exceeds the rate of photosynthesis due to unavailability of adequate sunlight.
Can photosynthesis happen during nighttime?
yes,there are two reactions the light dependent and the light independent.pen the light independent is the reaction where the photosynthesis happen nighttime.
Why does the amount of carbon dioxide reduce in the daytime?
During the day, a tree will take in carbon dioxide to use in photosynthesis, and give off oxygen created in the process. At night, when there is no sunlight to power photosynthesis, trees get energy through cellular respiration, oxidizing some of their stored carbohydrates. Thus at night they take in oxygen and give off carbon dioxide.
Did the Boston massacre happen at night?
No, in the day.
Do forest fires happen in the day or a night?
They can happen at any time anywhere
