Photosynthesis is a process used by plants and other organisms to convert light energy into chemical energy that can later be released to fuel the organisms' activities. In most cases, oxygen is also released as a waste product

The C4 photosynthetic carbon cycle is an elaborated addition to the C3 photosynthetic pathway. It evolved as an adaptation to high light intensities, high temperatures, and dryness. The establishment of C4 photosynthesis includes several biochemical and anatomical modifications that allow plants with this photosynthetic pathway to concentrate CO2 at the site of Rubisco. Thereby its oxygenase reaction and the following photorespiratory pathway are largely repressed in C4 plants. In most C4 plants the CO2 concentration mechanism is achieved by a division of labor between two distinct, specialized leaf cell types, the mesophyll and the bundle sheath cells, although in some species C4 photosynthesis functions within individual cells (Edwards et a. 2004).

Photosynthesis represents the biological process by which plants convert light energy into sugar to fuel plant cells. Comprised of two stages, one stage converts the light energy into sugar, and then cellular respiration converts the sugar to Adenosine triphosphate, known as ATP, the fuel for all cellular life. The conversion of unusable sunlight makes plants green. While the mechanisms of photosynthesis are complex, the overall reaction occurs as follows: carbon dioxide + sunlight + water -- glucose (sugar) + molecular oxygen. Photosynthesis takes place through several steps which occur.

The advantages of C4 photosynthesis occur in lower CO 2 environments and/or high temperature environments, where photorespiration rates are relatively high in C3 plants. Under these conditions, the efficiency of C4 photosynthesis is greater than that of C3 photosynthesis (Ehleringer and Cerling, 2002).
