Coleus plant was outside for the summer you have brought it inside because of temperature Some of the leaves have turned white and fallen off you are not overwatering what is going with the leaves?
Coleus cannot tolerate the cold weather, and so unfortunately if its too cold it will die, however if you want the plant to come back next spring, you can take 2 inch cuttings of the plant, making sure to take from the centre of the plant, not offshoots, then prune the bottom couple of leaves so you have at least 1 inch in the soil without leaves, you could also try putting in a glass of water as coleus will root in this also. Answer Sounds as if your coleus might have mildew.
Could photosynthesis take place in space?
No, there is no carbon dioxide in space so plants cannot make the glucose produced in photosynthesis
Which describes a disruption in the water cycle that could affect photosynthesis?
Polluted water affects water cycle. It also affects photosynthesis.
Why is photosynthesis necessary in order for us to breathe?
Photosynthesis produces oxygen as a waste product.
Could photosynthesis occur in a plant outside at night?
No. Unless there was another light source besides the sun;photosynthesis is a process involving light.

How could you avoid the incident from occurring?
avoid the problem
Explain what happen during the process to determine the projrct budgt?
Identify 6 hazards (in total)that could jeopradise children's safty .provide 1 strategy for each of in 6identified hazards to minimise or prevent them from occurring .
Which major physical change could be attributed to photosynthesis?
Photosynthesis drastically increased the oxygen content of the atmosphere.
Why photosynthesis called endothermic reaction?
Photosynthesis is an endothermic reaction because it takes energy (from sunlight) from the environment to use in the photosynthesis reaction. Without the energy input, the photosynthesis reaction could not occur.
What are some factors that could affect the amount of photosynthesis in a plant?
What abiotic factors could affect the rate of photosynthesis in a plant?
Could you grow plants in the dark?
no,.because they could not perform photosynthesis in the dark
What could have been done to prevent this tragedy from occurring?
Brain cells
Could photosynthesis take place in space?
No, there is no carbon dioxide in space so plants cannot make the glucose produced in photosynthesis
Which describes a disruption in the water cycle that could affect photosynthesis?
Polluted water affects water cycle. It also affects photosynthesis.
What information could you use to determine the atomic number of unknown element that has a mass-number of 22?
The only isotopes with atomic mass = 22 are:10Ne-22 (9%)11Na-22 (0%) not natural occurring12Mg-22 (0%) not natural occurring
What does Coleus look like?
Coleus looks like a nettle, which is why its common name is painted nettle. It can be of various different colours, from dark maroons, purples, reds, through to greens, yellows, oranges. It depends on the cultivar to what individual coleus plants look like, they can be different leaf shapes, and sizes, some slower growing than others, but most are quick growers, and can grow up to 2ft. They can sport quite frequently so you could start off with a broad purple plant and it end up having streaks of other colours, very easy to grow, and brightens up any space.
