Biochemistry
CAM photosynthesis, or Crassulacean Acid Metabolism, is a photosynthetic adaptation that allows certain plants to efficiently fix carbon dioxide during the night while minimizing water loss during the day. This process is particularly beneficial for plants in arid environments, as it enables them to conserve water by opening their stomata at night instead of during the hot daytime hours, which helps in reducing transpiration rates.
congrats on reading the definition of CAM Photosynthesis. now let's actually learn it.
