C4 plants like maize and sugarcane have adaptations that allow them to more efficiently fix carbon. These include bundle sheath cells that compartmentalize RuBisCO from oxygen, and mesophyll cells that fix carbon dioxide before it reaches the bundle sheath cells. Sorghum is adapted to arid environments through traits like a dense root system, waxy leaves that reduce evaporation, and leaves that can roll inward to hide stomata when water is scarce. Rice is adapted to grow with submerged roots through large air spaces that provide oxygen to roots, shallow roots with access to surface water, and the ability to undergo anaerobic respiration in roots.
