2.Tropical Origin And Xeric: Most of the CAM plants are either
epiphytes(e.g;ORCHIDS), succulent xerophytes(e.g;CACTI),
hemiepiphytes,lithophytes, wet land plants.
5.Stomato Opening: They are shut during day to reduce transpiration but
open at night to collect CO2.

2.By closing stomata during the day gaseous exchange does not
occur. This advantage also limits the total amount of
photosynthesis the plant is capable of during sunlight hours,
since at night CO2 is stockpiled in the form of crassulic acid and
when that acid is completely consumed during the following
day, no additional photosynthesis can be performed, regardless
of available water or sunlight.
