CAM plants keep stomata closed in the daytime, thus reducing loss of water. They can do this because they - fix
into organic acids during the night.
The correct option is a.
As an adaptation to dry environments, certain plants developed a carbon fixation mechanism known as crassulacean acid metabolism, or CAM photosynthesis, which enables a plant to photosynthesize during the day but only exchange gases at night.
During the day, the malate is transferred to chloroplasts where it is transformed back to
, which is then utilised during photosynthesis. At night, the
is stored as the four-carbon acid malic acid in vacuoles. The enzyme RuBisCO is surrounded by a concentration of pre-collected
, which improves photosynthetic efficiency. Plants in the Crassulaceae family were the ones that initially revealed this process of acid metabolism.

1. Osmosis is a process which occurs when there is a difference in solute concentration between two solutions separated by a semipermeable membrane.
2. Osmotic pressure is the minimum pressure which needs to be applied to a solution to prevent the inward flow of its pure solvent across a semipermeable membrane. It is also defined as the measure of the tendency of a solution to take in pure solvent by osmosis.
3. The semipermeable membrane limits the diffusion of solutes in the water.
4. In an isotonic solution, the flow of water in and out of the cell is happening at the same rate. ... Water moves into and out of cells by osmosis.
5. Osmosis is basically diffusion with water. ... The most common example of facilitated diffusion is the movement of water across a cell membrane through transmembrane proteins, which requires no energy. They are simply powered by the concentration differences of the molecules between the two sides of the cell membrane.
(Hope this helped. Have a nice day.)
The evidence of common ancestry is based on study of
three parameters; fossils record, homologies of various
organisms, and study of biogeography. Fossils record determines the similarity and differences of
bones as well as shells of different organisms over a given period of time. On the
other hand, studying of homologies involves assessment of mitochondrial DNA and
other proteins with an aim of finding similarity from one organism to
another. Finally, Biogeography is the
assessment of how continental drift might have separated organisms which had
got common ancestry and they were living together.
