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).
Under arid conditions C4 plants fix carbon dioxide more efficiently than C3 plants because C4 plants?
C4 plants fix 4 carbon dioxides during glycolysis instead of the normal 3 (hence C3 plants). CAM plants fix carbon dioxide at night instead of during the day.
Is a basswood tree an example of a c3 c4 or CAM plant?
c3
Are C4 plants larger than C3 plants?
c3
What is C2 -C4 pathway?
There is no C2 plants, just C3, C4, and CAM plants - they have to do with the photosynthesis of the plant and how raw materials are transported.C2 pathway is photo respiratory pathway where oxygen is fixed by RuBisCo instead of CO2( asin normal photosynthetic plants or C3 plants)C2 because in photorespiration 2 carbon compound ( phosphoglycolate) is formed as a first productC3 are normal phortosynthetic plants , called C3 because 1st product in cycle formed is 3 carbon compound ( 3- phosphoglycerate) and nrmal Calvin cycle continuesC4 plants are those which have evolved mechanism to overcome photorespiration and use PEP carboxylase to fix carbon
CAM plants are similar to c3 plants because what?
photosynthesis occurs in chloroplasts of mesophyll cells
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.

How are cam plants and c4 plants beneficial?
Plants that can grow in arid conditions and all grasses must be beneficial to the animals that have occupied those niches because of the availability of these plants that photosynthesize and do the light independent reactions differently than the vast majority of C3 plants.
Is a basswood tree an example of a c3 c4 or CAM plant?
c3
What type of plant will you find in the tropical rain forest c3 plants or c4 plants?
C3 due to the abundance of water. C4 and CAM plants tend to inhabit very dry environments and have adaptations that minimise photorespiration (a process that wastes ATP) and water loss.
Are C4 plants larger than C3 plants?
c3
What do leaves go through at night?
At night, the leaves of C3 plants close their stomata and wait until the sunlight. For CAM plants, this is when the plants open their stomata and allow the carbon dioxide to come in.
Are tomatoes C3 or C4 plants?

Is Carpobrotus edulis a CAM plant?
It is a facultive CAM which means it can switch between C3 and CAM depending on the conditions.
