In succulent plants, the stomata open during the night and close by the day; which of the following would be the best hypothesis to explain the mechanism of stomatal action in night only? Correct Answer Absorption of CO<sub>2</sub> and its conversion to organic acids, results in the increased uptake of potassiumions and water

In succulent plants, the stomata open during the night and close by the day, the best hypothesis to explain the mechanism of stomatal action at night only is the Absorption of CO2 and its conversion to organic acids, which results in the increased uptake of potassium ions and water.
Higher than ambient CO2 concentrations mediate a closure of stomatal pores in plants and conversely, low CO2 concentrations trigger the opening of stomatal pores.
In succulent plants, during the night, there is incomplete oxidation of carbohydrates and accumulation of organic acids without the release of CO2.
