Answer: Option C
Solution:
CAM (Crassulacean acid metabolism), is a photosynthetic adaption to periodic water supply, in the plants occurring in Arid regions.Thus, the plants that grow in a dry environment, like cactus and pineapples show the CAM pathway to stay hydrated and minimize the photorespiration process in such plants.
