C3 and C4 photosynthetic processes

Introduction

Cand C4 plants have very different photosynthetic mechanisms.

Cplants have just your average North American photosynthetic process which open their stomata and breathe in COand release O2 during the day.  the reason that they go through this reaction normally is because they are not exposed to extremely hot weather.

Cplants are different because they have two seperate cells mesophyll cells and bundle sheath cells.  This is used to combat photorespiration which is when plants breakdown glucose to form CO2 instead of breaking down COto make glucose and releasing O2.
