Biochemistry
C4 plants are a group of plants that have adapted their photosynthesis process to efficiently fix carbon dioxide in environments with high light intensity and temperature. They utilize a unique pathway that minimizes photorespiration, allowing them to thrive in conditions that would be detrimental to other plant types. This adaptation is crucial for their survival in hot, dry climates where water loss is a concern.
