Crassulacean acid metabolism, also known as CAM photosynthesis, is a carbon fixation pathway that evolved in some plants as an adaptation to arid conditions [1] that allows a plant to photosynthesize during the day, but only exchange gases at night.
27 Μαρ 2019 · CAM – short for “Crassulacean Acid Metabolism” – is a method of carbon fixation evolved by some plants in dry circumstances. In most plants, the stomata – which are like tiny mouths that take in oxygen all along the surfaces of their leaves – open during the day to take in CO 2 and release O 2 .
10 Φεβ 2019 · Crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) is a specialized mode of photosynthesis that exploits a temporal CO 2 pump with nocturnal CO 2 uptake and concentration to reduce photorespiration, improve water-use efficiency (WUE), and optimize the adaptability of plants to hotter and drier climates.
Crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM), named after the Crassulaceae family of succulent plants, is an elaboration of C 3 photosynthesis that has evolved to maximize CO 2 uptake and recapture of respiratory CO 2 under environmental conditions with limited or intermittent water availability.
12 Οκτ 2021 · Crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) and C 4 photosynthesis represent the two modifications of the basic C 3 pathway of CO 2 assimilation frequently found in vascular plants, especially those associated with warmer and/or more water-limited environments.
4 Οκτ 2019 · C3, C4 and CAM are the three different processes that plants use to fix carbon during the process of photosynthesis. Fixing carbon is the way plants remove the carbon from atmospheric carbon dioxide and turn it into organic molecules like carbohydrates.
2 Αυγ 2014 · A few aquatic plants even use CAM photosynthesis. CAM plants are found across the world and demonstrate an important adaptation of plants to their environment when either water or carbon dioxide is in short supply.
