Description
Both adaptations are characterized by (1)preliminary incorporation of CO2 into organic acids, followed by (2) a transfer of CO2 to the Calvin cycle. The C4 and CAM pathways are two evolutionary solutions to the problem of maintaining photosynthesis with stomata partially or completely closed on hot, dry days.
