Why and how do trees photosynthesize?

with thier leaves


What are four items that photosynthesize?

Plants photosynthesize, so you just need to name four plants, such as grass and oak trees and pine trees.


How do cells that cannot carry out photosynthesis get energy?

The cells that do not photosynthesize must be heterotrophic, meaning they must take and break down glucose molecules from other things to get energy. It will be different in how each cell gets the energy, but most non-photosynthesizing cells require glucose from a source that isn't sunlight. For example, in humans, fruits, meats, and other foods (from cows, trees, pigs, etc.) are how we get our glucose and energy. Through a process called aerobic respiration (anaerobic for non-oxygen using cells), the human breaks down the glucose into usable energy.


How do plants use chemical reactions?

Trees and plants are living organisms, and therefore have the same needs as all other organisms. For example, they need to be able to fuel their cells with ATP (adenosine triphosphate) and to for that, they need to photosynthesize and produce molecules that can be broken down to release energy.


What is the relationship between trees and the environment?

Trees produce oxygen for respiration and the animals, in return, produce carbon dioxide for trees to photosynthesize.


Do Deciduous trees stay green always?

deciduous trees go into dormancy over winter relying on stored energy to survive, without the leaves they cant photosynthesize. the exception to this would be in young trees that have green stems that photosynthesize.


Can leaves that are not green make food?

Yes, leaves do not have to be green to photosynthesize and make food. The green is caused by chlorophyll, the most common and the most efficient, but not the only, compound that can extract energy from sunlight. Other pigments that can photosynthesize include cartenoids and phycobilins, and non-green leaves that photosynthesize range from brown and red seaweeds to red or yellow lichens and purple-leaved plum trees.


Which function would polar bears and orange trees not use energy for?

moving molecules


Do trees use photosynthesise?

All plants with green leaves/spindles/spikes photosynthesize. Edd


What do trees need in order to make food?

Trees are plants, so it has plant cells that have chloroplast in them which turn sunlight into energy in a process called photosynthesis.


Why do trees that are cut down can longer photosynthesize?

because there are no leaves that the sun can reach so therefore the tree cant photosynthesise


How do trees photosynthesize?

By using their leaves. Their leaves will take in the carbon dioxide and the chloroplast will convert it into oxygen (waste) and glucose (food).
