Crassulacean acid metabolism
I. is an alternative of the `C_3` and `C_4`- pathway of `CO_2` fixation found in plants living in dry hot climate.
II. Pathway resemble `C_4` - pathway in that `CO_2` is trapped by highly efficient PEP- carboxylase.
III. is a special type of respiration show by many green plants, when why they are exposed to light.
IV. is catalysed by the enzyme serine hydroxymethyl transferase.
