CAM
Cacti primarily emit thermal energy, which is the heat released as a result of photosynthesis and metabolic processes. They also release water vapor through transpiration, which can carry away heat and influence the local microclimate. Additionally, as living plants, cacti reflect and absorb sunlight, contributing to their energy dynamics.
Photosynthesis is the production of food and not a type of nutrition. Plants making their food in the presence of sunlight and water called Photosynthesis.
The green plants having chloroplasts in their cells undergo photosynthesis.
Plants release oxygen into the atmosphere as a by-product of photosynthesis.
Plants are the major type of organism that can carry out photosynthesis. They contain chlorophyll, a green pigment that helps convert sunlight into energy through the process of photosynthesis.
Cacti utilize a type of photosynthesis called CAM (Crassulacean Acid Metabolism) to survive in arid environments.
Cacti have a unique photosynthesis process compared to other plants because they perform a type of photosynthesis called Crassulacean Acid Metabolism (CAM). This allows cacti to open their stomata at night to reduce water loss and store carbon dioxide, which is then used during the day for photosynthesis. In contrast, most other plants perform photosynthesis during the day through a process called C3 photosynthesis, where stomata are open during the day.
Many types of Cacti.
A CAM (Crassulacean Acid Metabolism) plant is a type of plant that photosynthesizes at night to minimize water loss in arid conditions. Examples of CAM plants include certain succulents and cacti, but not crabgrass, peas, corn, or pineapples. Pineapple is a well-known CAM plant, utilizing this adaptation to thrive in dry environments, while crabgrass, peas, and corn primarily use C3 or C4 photosynthesis.
Cacti are a type of succulent, but not all succulents are cacti. Succulents are plants that store water in their leaves, stems, or roots to survive in arid conditions. Cacti are a specific type of succulent that belong to the family Cactaceae and are known for their unique features like spines and areoles.

photosynthesis
CAM photosynthesis mostly occurs in succulent plants, such as cacti and certain types of orchids, that are adapted to arid or semi-arid environments. These plants open their stomata at night to take in carbon dioxide, which is then stored as malate or other organic acids before being used for photosynthesis during the day. This adaptation helps reduce water loss during the heat of the day.
No cacti store water, not milk. A genus of succulent called Euphorbia leak a milky latex when damaged, they look like cacti but are not. This is probably what you are thinking of. The latex produced by plants in the genus Euphorbia is a skin irritant and can cause temporary blindness. They are common in cacti collections, and are often sold as cacti.
