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.
What else can I help you with?
Are C3 or C4 plants aquatic?
C4 plants are usually not aquatic, as they are more commonly found in dry, warm environments. C3 plants can include both terrestrial and aquatic plants, as they are more adaptable to different environmental conditions.
What does C4 plants require less of to produce the same amount of carbonhydrates?
It requires less water than c3 plants.
Is Eucalyptus is a C3 plant?
Yes, eucalyptus is a C3 plant. C3 plants are the most common type of plants and they use the C3 carbon fixation pathway during photosynthesis.
What do c3 and c4 plants have in common?
C3 and C4 plants are both categories of plants based on the type of photosynthetic pathway they use. Both types of plants undergo the Calvin cycle to fix carbon dioxide and produce sugar during photosynthesis. However, C4 plants have an additional carbon-concentrating mechanism that allows for more efficient photosynthesis in hot and dry conditions compared to C3 plants.
Is Kentucky blue grass a C3 type plant?
Yes it is. C3-type plants are cool-season plants, which grow best in the cool season in the South or in the colder climate of the North (Northern USA and most of Canada).
Are tomatoes C3 or C4 plants?
C3
Why C4 plants efficient in law water than C3 plants?
the question doesn't make sense
Are C3 or C4 plants aquatic?
C4 plants are usually not aquatic, as they are more commonly found in dry, warm environments. C3 plants can include both terrestrial and aquatic plants, as they are more adaptable to different environmental conditions.
Is Eucalyptus is a C3 plant?
Yes, eucalyptus is a C3 plant. C3 plants are the most common type of plants and they use the C3 carbon fixation pathway during photosynthesis.
What does C4 plants require less of to produce the same amount of carbonhydrates?
It requires less water than c3 plants.
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 zonal geraniums C3 plants?
Yes, zonal geraniums are C3 plants. They rely on the C3 photosynthesis pathway to fix carbon dioxide during photosynthesis.
Are C3 plants monocots or diacots?
C3 plants belong to both monocots and dicots. The C3 pathway refers to the type of photosynthesis certain plants use, and it is not exclusive to a specific group of plants based on their classification as monocots or dicots.
Is sunflower c3 or c4 plant?
Sunflowers are C3 plants. They use the C3 carbon fixation pathway during photosynthesis, which is less efficient in hot and dry conditions compared to C4 plants.
What is the value of Carbon dioxide compensation point in C3 and C4 plants respectively?
Around 50ppm for C3 plants and around 5ppm for C4 plants.
Is broccoli a c3 or c4 plant?
Well, broccoli is a c4 plant because plants that are in the section of c3 live in hot, dry temperatures and climates. So cacti would be a great example of c3 plants. Broccoli is not a c3 plant it is a c4 plant. So a way to remember this would be to say that warm or cool plants with rainy season and those whom actually get water more then once in every blue moon are c4 plants and then those whom get water few times a year and live in desert type climates are c3 plant.

Why are C4 plants able to photosynthesize more efficiently than C3 plants?
C4 plants are able to photosynthesize more efficiently than C3 plants because they have a specialized mechanism that helps them minimize water loss and increase carbon dioxide uptake, allowing them to thrive in hot and dry conditions.
