CAM plants function using crassulacean acid metabolism. Like C4 plants, CAM plants provide preparatory step for the Calvin cycle

. CAM plants are found in hot, dry environments; to prevent desiccation, they keep their stomata closed during the day. They take in carbon dioxide at night while stomata are open. To increase the concentration of carbon dioxide available to the enzyme rubisco and minimize the degree of photorespiration, the CAM plants carboxylate ________.

Answer: ORGANIC ACIDS  

Explanation:

CAM PLANTS CARBOXYLATE ORGANICS ACIDS through the addition of  CO2 to PEP Carboxylase(  a phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase enzyme present in the mesophyll cells of the cytoplasm in a green plant) to produce Oxaloacetate (organic compound).

CO2 + PEP  ⇒ C4H4O5 (oxaloacetate)

Oxaloacetate is then converted to a similar molecule, Malate (C4H6O5,  another form of organic compound) that can be transported in to the bundle-sheath cells. Malate enters the plasmodesmata and releases the CO2. The CO2 then fixed by rubisco and made into sugars via the Calvin cycle.

Answer:

A ability to decompose

B reactivity

Explanation:

Chemical properties are those properties that tell us about what a substance can do as regards to whether or not the substance reacts with other substances.

Examples are flammability, rusting of iron, precipitation, decomposition of water by an electric current.

The ability to decompose and reactivity are chemical properties of a substance.

  • Physical properties tells us everything about what a substance is when no change is occurring to its constituents.
  • Examples are state of matter, color, odor, taste, texture, hardness e.t.c

The air above earth’s surface is at different temperatures. What is responsible for this difference in temperature?
tino4ka555 [31]

The Mesosphere, like the troposphere layer, has a decrease in temperature with altitude because of the decreases in the density of the air molecules. Thermosphere: As the altitude increases, the air temperature increases.
