Plants use photons of light, any light, to do photosynthesis, so yes. Ever heard of grow lights?

How does artificial light effect plants?

Plants use light to do photosynthesis, which takes carbon dioxide and sunlight to produce sugar. If we keep a plant without sunlight will it grow or die? in my thoughts plants will not grow. so, light is necessary for growth of the plants. without light plants cant survive. They use a certain gas called carbon dioxide (CO2) for food which is also what we release as waste from cellular respiration. Plants release oxygen as waste in return.


Why don't plants grow better in artificial light?

Plants have chloroplasts in them, this gives the distinct green colour we are familiar with. It also REFLECTS green light, hence you need other wavelengths of visible light for the plant to be able to grow.


Do plants need light to photosynthesis?

yes and they also need water and some fresh soil ☺


Can a plant live with only water?

No. That's why there are photosynthesis. (photo= light and synthesis= make of) Photosynthesis is the process of water and sunlight. The whole Earth depends on photosynthesis! And if you haven't noticed, the word phototropism is the plant's growth of LIGHT. But yes, (ofcourse) plants live with water. (water is their life!) But they also need sunlight (or just light) to live. See, you can't give plants water and no light, or there will be no natural process of photosynthesis.


Do all plants need direct sunlight to perform photosynthesis?

Photosynthesis needs light to happen, and that usually means sunlight, but it is also possible to grow plants with artificial lighting, which is also a suitable source of energy for photosynthesis.


What is chollorphyl?

Chlorophyll can be defined as the pigment which gives plants their green color and is found in most plants and algae. It also facilitates the process of photosynthesis which allows the absorption of energy from light.


Who uses photosynthesis?

Photosynthesis is used for food for plants Photosynthesis is used for production of organic compounds from carbon dioxide and water. These organic compounds serve as food material to plants and animals.


What are some uses of light energy?

some uses of light energy are Light energy is used in photosynthesis for plants because plants need light to grow. Light Energy can be used in producing electricity and it also be used for generating heat.


How are plants adapted for light absorption?

The plants have chloroplasts in the cells forming palisade tissue in the upper side of the leaf facing sun to absorb maximum amount of light for photosynthesis. Other arial parts of the plant may also contain chlorenchyma to absorb light for the same purpose of photosynthesis.


What make plants grow?

what makes plants grow is the sun light and and the rich soil and the rain, also what keeps them growing is photosynthesis.


What use light to create chemical energy and produce ATP?

Plants use light to create chemical energy and produce ATP. This is done through a complicated process also known as photosynthesis.


How do plants eat amd breath?

Well the process of which plants eat is called PHOTOSYNTHESIS. This is when the plants use the sun's light to make their food. Also plants breathe in Carbon Dioxide and breathe out Oxygen which is beneficial to humans also.
