Which outcome follows when water availability sharply drops within a CAM photosynthetic pathway?

💡 Explanation

The light-independent reactions diminish because CAM photosynthesis relies on malate decarboxylation at a later time. A decline in water inhibits the initial CO2 uptake, therefore starving the Calvin cycle, rather than affecting oxygenase activity directly.
