How do desert plants carry out photosynthesis if their stomata remain closed during the day?
Asked by prithvi | 19 Sep, 2015, 19:32: PM

Hi Prithvi,

In desert plants, the stomata is open during night. During night, desert plants absorb carbon dioxide and form an intermediate. Then during day time when the stomata is closed to prevent loss of water, they use this stored carbon dioxide to perform photosynthesis.

Please answer this. Assertion (A): Most of the plants close their stomata at night. Reason (R): Closing of stomata helps to conserve water as large amount of water evaporates from the leaves.
