What basic unit of food is used for energy and growth?
The sun provides light energy which plants use to convert in to chemical energy through photosynthesis. Nutrients from the soil also assist in growth of plants. Animals rely completely on these green plants for their energy. Green plants produce chemical energy (food energy).
What are three advantages of nuclear power plants compared with power plants that burn fossil fuels?
Nuclear power plants don't emit greenhouse gases, need little fuel to generate a lot of power, and can produce electricity continuously.
How do green plants get energy?
The green colouring comes from chlorophyll , the same pigment that is found in foliage. a green pigment, present in all green plants and in cyanobacteria, responsible for the absorption of light to provide energy for photosynthesis. Its molecule contains a magnesium atom held in a porphyrin ring.
What color is not absorbed by chloroplast?
Green light is not absorbed by plants, but is reflected.
Which component of green plants traps solar energy?
Because of Chlorophyll present in it
In nature during a 24houre period green plants continuously use?
In a 24-hour period green plants continuously use carbon dioxide and energy.
During a twenty four hour period what do green plants continuously use?
Oxygen, only :)
The green coloring that plants use in photosynthesis?
chlorophyll is the green coloring plants use in photosynthesis
Why are plants that do photosynthesis green?
Plants that use photosynthesis to get food are green because the chloroplasts in their cells are green
What plants use sunlight to create their own food?
the green plants do
Do all green plants photosynthesis?
Almost all plants use photosynthesis, even some without chlorophyll. But green plants would not be green if they were not using chlorophyll-based photosynthesis.
What kind of pea plants did Mendel use?
Smooth yellow pea plants and wrinkly green peas.
Monerans that use solar energy in a manner similar to green plants are called?
Phototrophic plants are the monerans that use solar energy in a manner similar to the green plants. The phototrophic plants are generally referred to as are phototrophs.
How does green plants use to make food?
photosynthesis
What is the effect of green plants on the earth's climate?
Plants use CO2 and release O2
What process that plants and animals use sunlight to make food?
Green plants use a process called photosynthesis to make food from sunlight. Only green plants can make their own food. Other plants (like mushrooms) and animals do not make their own food, but get nutrition from green plants (or dead green plants). Animals do not make food from sunlight. If they could, they would not need to eat.
Why green lights are bad for plants?
There is a reason why plants appear green. Inside a plant, the plastid chloroplast contains green pigment that reflects green light. This means that plants do not use green lights in large amounts (there are some other plastids that uses the color green, but there are few in number). So when you give plants green light, they cannot use it as efficient as they would if it was a different color.
