In the dark plants cannot?
In the dark plants cannot photosynthesize.
What happens to plants that get light?
When a plant gets light it photosynthesises (makes food) in the dark it respires. Hope this answers your question:)
What happens when you manipulate plant growth by growing plants in the dark?
Plants do grow in the "dark." There are 2 phases to photosynthesis: a light phase and a dark phase. The dark phase does not necessarily mean it happens in the dark but it CAN occur during the dark. It is the metabolism of the compounds made during the light phase, the phase requiring sunlight, of photosynthesis. Plants held in the dark too long build up cell compounds from the normal cellular pathways and create a situation called "inhibition" in which the accumulation of the cellular metabolics, the by-product, build until it causes the cell to stop normal functioning and either dies or must alter the chemistry in a manner to move those by-products out of the cell.
Would it still grow even though it is in the dark?
If you are talking about plants, then no, it would not grow in the dark. It would need sunlight. Most plants grown in the dark.
What product is made by plants during the dark reactions?
Plants respire durning a dark cycle. They release carbon dioxide.
What happens during each of the two stages of photosynthesis?
These stages are called the light reactions and the dark reactions. The light reactions take place in the presence of of light. The dark reactions do not require direct light, however dark reactions in most plants occur during the day.
Do plants grow best in the dark or in the light?
Seeds and bulbs sometimes requires to be kept in the dark, but plants always need sunlight

Why does animals and plants glow in the dark and not others?
Because in dark our eyes can catch....
Could you grow plants in the dark?
no,.because they could not perform photosynthesis in the dark
What occurs in plants and animals?
Cellular respiration happens in both. Photosynthesis happens in plants only.
Why do plants grow taller in the dark?
plants grow taller in the dark because plant will grow until they find light, but will eventually die.
