Biophysical Chemistry
C4 plants are a group of flowering plants that utilize a unique photosynthetic pathway known as C4 photosynthesis, which allows them to efficiently capture carbon dioxide even in low concentrations and under high temperatures. This adaptation enables C4 plants to thrive in environments where other plants may struggle, particularly in hot and dry climates. The C4 pathway minimizes photorespiration and enhances carbon fixation, resulting in greater photosynthetic efficiency.
congrats on reading the definition of C4 Plants. now let's actually learn it.
