← Nature & AnimalsWhich carbon fixation outcome arises utilizing the CAM pathway?
A)Daytime stomata closure avoids transpiration✓
B)Photorespiration reduces energy production loss
C)Rubisco fixes oxygen at night
D)Increased CO2 directly enters bundle sheath
💡 Explanation
Stomata close during the day when CAM plants utilize temporal separation because crassulacean acid metabolism uptakes and later releases CO2, therefore saving water rather than losing it; direct bundle sheath targeting is for C4, not CAM, pathways.
