Describe the mechanism of photosynthesis in C4 and CAM plants. Give an example of a CAM plant.
C4: Carbon fixation which conserves water by closing its stomata during hot/dry seasons; first CO2 into a 4-Carbon compound CAM: Conserve water by only opening stomata and admitting CO2 at night; CO2 is fixed to a 4-Carbon compound at night and released into Calvin cycle during the day; pineapples, cacti
