carbon dioxide
CAM (Crassulacean Acid Metabolism) plants, such as succulents and cacti, have a unique adaptation to save water. They open their stomata at night to take in carbon dioxide, convert it into a special carbon compound (malic acid), and store it in their cells. During the day, the stomata remain closed to prevent water loss, and the stored malic acid is broken down to release carbon dioxide for photosynthesis. This enables these plants to survive in arid environments with limited water availability.

carbon dioxide
Carbon dioxide as well as water are needed for photosynthesis.
carbon dioxide
Plants need carbon dioxide to preform photosynthesis.
Green plants take in carbon dioxide during photosynthesis and give out oxygen. While respiration, all living organisms take in oxygen and carbon dioxide and then give out carbon dioxide.
Carbon dioxide is split into carbon and oxygen during photosynthesis.
