It depends on how the leaves are modified, but probably not. Most leaf modifications will decrease photosynthetic output due to increased storage capacity or defense against predators (needles). The ants probably wouldn't affect photosynthesis because the leaves aren't generally modified for greater photosynthesis anyway.

How does sunlight affect living things?
It depends. If it is a plant it is the energy that powers photosynthesis, but if it is a human they get burnt and get skin cancer
Are dry leaves living or nonliving?
Dry leaves are dead leaves.
What is the following groups of organisms do not contain any species that can undergo photosynthesis?
Living things DO carry out photosynthesis, since green plants are living things. They are not animals, if that is what you meant. Animals do not have chlorophyll, which is needed for photosynthesis.
What kinds of living organisms can use photosynthesis?
those organisms which contain chlorophyll can use photosynthesis
Does respiration and photosynthesis both occur in all living things?
Respiration occurs in all living things, but photosynthesis only occurs in heterotrophic plants. (not all plants)
How are a cactus leaves adapted to living in the dessert?
A cactus leaves get sunlight and they make photosynthesis and they get water from that and they save the water
How does photosynthesis affect living things?
well it makes it so that you can breathe
Can a plant survive if all its leaves are cut off?
No. All living organisms need food, and plants actually do eat!!! Not like we do, but through a process using sunlight called photosynthesis that takes place in the leaves. No leaves= no photosynthesis = no food.
What product of photosynthesis leaves the plant and is necessary to humans?
Oxygen is an end product of photosynthesis, along with glucose/starch, and is needed for humans and other living things, besides plants.
How does sunlight affect living things?
It depends. If it is a plant it is the energy that powers photosynthesis, but if it is a human they get burnt and get skin cancer
How does photosynthesis help other living things in the ecosystem?
Photosynthesis helps in the being of plants as well as other living creatures. It helps in formation of gases and absorb harmful gases like CO2. It provies the chrorophyll in the leaves which enables the animals to eat them as food.
Why don't tomatoes have chloroplasts?
Tomato fruit was created by the photosynthesis that occurred in the leaves of the plant itself. This is where the chlorophyll is situated. Specifically the stoma of the plant cell. The chlorophyll contained in these leaves allows sunlight to be converted into the energy required for the plant to grow. All plants grow to reproduce (unless genetically modified) and by producing fruit such as a tomato, the plant is able to do this with the seed contained in the fruit, and therefore continue its lineage.
Is photosynthesis the four living things?
photosynthesis is the process plants use to get food. there is no living things?
Are dry leaves living or nonliving?
Dry leaves are dead leaves.
Is a branch living or non living?
yes it is because it is attached to the tree and the tree is alive, also branches normally have leaves on them and leaves are living organisms and they transfer the photosynthesis through the branches to give it to the trunk of the tree
Are leaves a living thing?
YES, leaves are a living thing.
What is the difference between a living trust and other trusts?
A living trust can be modified while the person is still a live. Other forrms of trusts do not allow them to be modified.
