Crassulacean acid metabolism, also known as CAM photosynthesis, is a carbon fixation pathway that evolved in some plants as an adaptation to arid conditions that allows a plant to photosynthesize during the day, but only exchange gases at night. In a plant using full CAM, the stomata in the leaves remain shut during the day to reduce evapotranspiration, but they open at night to collect carbon dioxide (CO 2) and allow it to diffuse into the mesophyll cells. The CO2 is stored as the four-carbon acid malic acid in vacuoles at night, and then in the daytime, the malate is transported to chloroplasts where it is converted back to CO
2, which is then used during photosynthesis. The pre-collected CO2 is concentrated around the enzyme RuBisCO, increasing photosynthetic efficiency. This mechanism of acid metabolism was first discovered in plants of the family Crassulaceae.

Pheobe Maybe is mine, the others belong to Katie. I would love a Margo & MRM!
Katie set this shot up, they look so wonderful together!

BEST TO VIEW LARGE:Finally able to get out d/t bad weather and recovering from pneumonia-Only to have my digital camera go out of commission ;so I tried my hand at using film and a 100mm macro lens I recently acquired{I found out it's not all that easy to use}-so here's what few shots I got
Native copper (Cu) in calcite crystal from the Precambrian of northern Michigan, USA. (Cranbrook Institute of Science collection, Bloomfield Hills, Michigan, USA)
The bedrock in northern Michigan's Keweenaw Peninsula area has Earth's highest concentration of elemental copper (Cu) in its native state. The copper has been extensively mined, but only one active mine remains (all the easily exploited copper is now mined out). Copper usually occurs in various late Mesoproterozoic-aged basaltic rocks and conglomerates.
A beautiful and rare occurrence for native copper in northern Michigan is WITHIN crystals of calcite. This is a large, transparent to translucent calcite crystal that easily shows the metallic orange coloration of the included native copper.
Stratigraphy & age: derived from the upper Portage Lake Volcanic Series, upper Mesoproterozoic (1.093 Ga); copper & calcite mineralization age is late Mesoproterozoic (1.05 to 1.06 Ga)
Locality: Central Mine, Keweenaw Peninsula, Houghton County, northwestern Upper Peninsula of Michigan, USA

The hidden bonuses of PAD. The young boy found a dead butterfly, so I handed over the book so that he could identify it. He soon found one which was quite similar. But it wasn't the right one. I turned to the right page and found why the boy hadn't spotted the right butterfly: the book's photograph showed the butterfly with its wings open, and ours had died with its wings closed. So we turned to Mummy's photographs. And hey presto, found the exact same underside wings. The cooperative butterfly in Mummy's photographs then showed us his beautiful upperside. The butterfly could now be identified. And mine was a very happy boy.
(and yes, he did check that the computer hadn't muddled up the pixels by delicately prying open the wings, checking them with the microscope etc etc).
Too lazy to create a mosaic with the sequence showing the id of the tortoiseshell. So here's a comma instead.
