Question
do c4 and cam plants also use c3 photosynthesis?
o no, they do not use c3 photosynthesis.
o yes, both c4 and cam plants also use c3 photosynthesis.
o cam plants use c3 photosynthesis, while c4 plants do not.
o c4 plants use c3 photosynthesis, while cam plants do not.
C4 and CAM plants have modified forms of photosynthesis to reduce photorespiration and adapt to different environmental conditions. But they still use the C3 - Calvin - Benson cycle in the bundle - sheath cells (in C4 plants) or during the day (in CAM plants) to synthesize carbohydrates. The C3 cycle is the final stage where carbon is fixed into sugars.
