Intro to Archaeology
C4 plants are a group of flowering plants that have adapted a unique photosynthetic pathway to efficiently fix carbon dioxide and minimize water loss. This adaptation allows them to thrive in hot, arid environments by using a specialized mechanism to concentrate carbon dioxide at the site of the Calvin cycle, enhancing their productivity and growth in conditions where C3 plants may struggle.
congrats on reading the definition of C4 plants. now let's actually learn it.
