Terrestrial Plants Perform photosynthesis with the help of leaves because the leaf contain chlorophyll which contain chloroplasts which performs photosynthesis under the presence of sunlight water and carbon dioxide.

Taking about the desert plants we know that their leaves are transformed into spines ( cactus ) for protection and less loss of water.

In desert plants , the stomata is open during night. During night, desert plants absorb carbon dioxide and form an intermediate. Then during day time when the stomata is closed to prevent loss of water, they use this stored carbon dioxide to perform photosynthesis.

Hope this helps ✌✌

Answer:

The stomata of desert plants remain closed during daytime to avoid transpiration. Instead they open at night time to absorb co2 which is acted upon and converted into glucose later in daytime in presence of sunlight.
