I guess only TULSI plant does photosynthesise at night as well as as in day.

No they need visible light to photosynthesize and thefore only do so during the day.

CAM plants close their what during the day and open them at night?

Cam plants close during the night and open during the day because they are photosensitive and respond to light. To do it experimentally, try with a torch for some time.


What is the refference of why is it that only plants can photosynthesize?

As well as plants, some bacteria also photosynthesize, though they use a different chemical process. Some plants use different photosynthetic mechanisms, known as C3, C4, and CAM. The latter mechanism is used by plants (such as some 'perching plants') that may have a water conservation problem. These plants open their stomata at night to take in CO2, and dissolve that in a specific chemical. During the day, they close their stomata to conserve water, and process the stored CO2 to produce sugars, etc.


Do plant need more C02 in the day time than the night time?

Green plants need carbon dioxide to perform photosynthesis, which operates using the energy of sunlight. So it takes in carbon dioxide during the day. At night, plants take in some oxygen for other metabolic processes, using cellular respiration.(Some desert plants take in more carbon dioxide and night because they can store it as weak acids. This limits the exposure of plant enzymes to oxygen. However, these plants, such as cacti, release oxygen during the day as do other plants.)


How do plants photosynthesise?

Plants photosynthesise by trapping sunlight and taking in carbon dioxide(Co2) through the stomata which are holes found at the underside of the leaf and release oxygen through the same hole.


Why is the size of stoma smaller in the night?

stomata only open during the day and close at night becasue plants only photosynthesis during the day cos they need the sun which isn't visible at night.

Why do plants in a field only photosynisise at night?

Plants photosynthesize during the day when the sun is shining. whether they are in a field or not.


Do green plants photosynthesize all day and night in summer?

no


When do plants do photosynthesis and respiration?

In general, green plants photosynthesize during the day or when light is on the leaves, and respire at night, or in the dark. As its name implies, photosynthesis is a light dependent process.


How do plants survive with little water?

they are often C2 photosynthetic plants and this particular way of photosynthesis allows the plants to take in carbon doxide at night and keep its stomatas shut during the day so it doesn't lose water in the heat and still photosynthesize


Is it wise to sleep under a tree during the day or at night give reasons?

It is wiser to sleep under a tree during the day than at night because... During the day, in presence of sunlight, plants use up carbon dioxide and release oxygen for photosynthesis. But during the night plants can't photosynthesize as there is no sunlight, which is needed for photosynthesis. So instead of taking in carbon dioxide and giving out oxygen, they do the opposite. Therefor there is an increased level of carbon dioxide in the air. If someone is sleeping under a tree at night the increased level of carbon dioxide will affect their health. So sleeping under a tree at day time is wiser then sleeping under a tree at night time.


Is water needed by a plant more during the day or night?

Pretty sure its night. During the day plants need more water because the sun is out.

Do plants lose more moisture during the night or day?

Yes


Is the loss in plants greater during the day or at night?

Day, because the water can evaporate. At night it can't because there is no light.
