A unique feature of CAM (crassulacean acid metabolism) photosynthesis is

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

CAM photosynthesis involves a daily cycle of photosynthesis, where carbon dioxide is taken in during the night and stored in the form of organic acids, such as malic acid, and then used for photosynthesis during the day when stomata are closed. This allows CAM plants to conserve water in arid environments. While CAM photosynthesis does involve the use of oxaloacetic acid, it is not a unique feature as some other types of photosynthesis also use this intermediate compound. CAM photosynthesis does not necessarily result in increased photosynthesis at high temperatures, and it does not involve the use of both phosphoenolpyruvic acid and RuBisCO.
