a biochemical pathway of photosynthesis in which carbon dioxide is converted into glucose using ATP

the synthesis of organic compounds from carbon dioxide, such as in photosynthesis

under hot and dry conditions, plants can rapidly lose water to the air through small pores

a carbon-fixing process in which carbon dioxide is bound to a compound to form a four-carbon intermediate

a water-conserving, carbon-fixing process; CAM plants take in carbon at night and fix it into various organic compounds and release it during the day
