i think plants can respond. but small amount of sunlight may cause to slow growing of the plant because it may not produce a large amount o foods that they need to be stong and i think plants will be malnourish. :)

How are ecosystems?

Water,sunlight,and soil.As an example,a desert is dry and has much sunlight and less nutrients,and the rain forest has more water,less sunlight and more nutrients than a desert. A small amount of plants and animals can survive in the desert.While more plants and animals survive in the rain forest.

Why do phytoplankton live in sunlight zone?

Phytoplankton (small plants or plantlike organisms floating around in water) require the sunlight to perform photosynthesis.


Why do plants have waxy coating on their leaves?

so that the leaves wouldnt be all soaked up with the water, and sink as they have short stems (their pretty small as well compared to partially submerged plants) they will eventually die due to insufficient amount of food (taller plants block the sunlight) and also will have too much water. they will die also due to overcrowding, this also occurs on land plants because the parent plant will get more sunlight and the young plants have to compete with them. in the water, too much floating or partially submerged plants will start to block eachother from the sunlight, depending on which grows more. they also completely block sunlight from the submerged plants down there.

Most plants can not like without sunligth because most plants rely mostly on photosynthesis to create energy, but there are exceptions, such as Indian pipe, which is pigmentless and parasitic.


Do plants give off a small amount of water?

How will depriving a closed terrarium of sunlight affect the oxygen and carbon cycle of the plant and small animals inside?

Sunlight is needed for photosynthesis. Photosynthesis is the way plants produce their carbohydrates.


How does the under canopy layer adapt in the rain forest?

For the few plants that exist in the rainforest, they have to spread out and have big, broad leaves to capture the small amount of sunlight that actually reaches the forest floor. In general, there aren't many plants that grow on the forest floor of the tropical rainforest because of the lack on sunlight and due to the fact that most trees and other vegetation grow tall creating a thick canopy. The only time plants and small vegetation might grow on the forest floor is when a taller tree falls down creating a hole in the forest canopy. Sunlight is then able to reach the forest floor and some plants can establish themselves and start growing.


Why are tundras plants small and stunted?

There are several reasons that tundra plants are small and stunted. They have a slow metabolic rate due to low temperatures. They have limited water and sunlight as well.Tundra plants are stunted because they grow in areas that have a short growing season.


Why can small plants grow well after trees have been cut down?

Because they are no longer in the shade away from good sunlight.
