C4 plants have evolved a specialized mechanism to concentrate CO2 in their tissues, which enhances photosynthesis and helps them thrive in hot, dry environments. This mechanism involves two main steps: the initial fixation of CO2 in the mesophyll cells and the subsequent concentration of CO2 in the bundle sheath cells.
In C4 plants, CO2 is initially
