Which of the following is an advantage of CAM pathway?
CAM pathway minimises photorespiration
CAM pathway can reduce water loss
CAM pathway has the ability to leave stomata closed during the day to reduce evapotranspiration
All of these
Comparison of the Photosynthetic Pathways: C3, C4 and CAM -
- CAM pathway minimizes photorespiration and water loss. It can leave stomata closed during the day to reduce evapotranspiration. Hence, the correct answer is option d.
