Updated version of this video! • C3, C4 and CAM Plant P...
A comparison of C3, C4 and CAM plants. Plants have different systems for harvesting energy depending on their environment. A sugar maple tree in New England faces very different challenges in temperature and humidity than does a cactus in the Mojave Desert! Note the strategies used by desert plants in order to effectively preserve their water in an arid environment, and to perform Carbon Fixation!
Thanks to the viewer who pointed out that PEP is "Phosphoenolpyruvate." Apologies for the mis-speak!
