As well as plants, some bacteria also photosynthesize, though they use a different chemical process. Some plants use different photosynthetic mechanisms, known as C3, C4, and CAM. The latter mechanism is used by plants (such as some 'perching plants') that may have a water conservation problem. These plants open their stomata at night to take in CO2, and dissolve that in a specific chemical. During the day, they close their stomata to conserve water, and process the stored CO2 to produce sugars, etc.

How is photosynthesis effected by winter?
Typically, in winter there is less sunlight. The light that does reach the plants is weaker as the Earth is tilted further away from the Sun in winter. Plants are unabe to photosynthesize without sunlight, it is the power behind the entire process. Also, plants are unable to photosynthesize without water. In the depths of winter, much of this may be locked up as ice and therefore unaccessible to most plants.
