What happens when you don't water plants and why?

they will not photosynthesize, then die


How plants meet their basic needs?

Absorb water and photosynthesize


What are two waste products common to plants and animals?

Two waste products common to plants and animals are carbon dioxide and water. However, only plants that photosynthesize in the dark have water as a waste product.


How do deep sea plants live without sunlight?

There are no plants in the deep ocean, since plants need to photosynthesize to survive. There are plants in shallow water since sunlight is easily accessible.


What effect does water scarcity have on plants?

Water scarcity in plants leads to water stress conditions. The leaves of the plant start minimizing water loss by transpiration.


Plants used carbon dioxide to make what?

Food and to produce along with water photosynthesizes 6co2+6h20 is how plants photosynthesize 6 stands for 6 carbon molecues or 6 water molclues


Is cementing of pathways good for water retention?

Cement paths are good to walk on but they are terrible for storm water management. Plants are better for water retention.


How is photosynthesis effected by winter?

Typically, in winter there is less sunlight. The light that does reach the plants is weaker as the Earth is tilted further away from the Sun in winter. Plants are unabe to photosynthesize without sunlight, it is the power behind the entire process. Also, plants are unable to photosynthesize without water. In the depths of winter, much of this may be locked up as ice and therefore unaccessible to most plants.


How do plants survive with little water?

they are often C2 photosynthetic plants and this particular way of photosynthesis allows the plants to take in carbon doxide at night and keep its stomatas shut during the day so it doesn't lose water in the heat and still photosynthesize


What is the refference of why is it that only plants can photosynthesize?

As well as plants, some bacteria also photosynthesize, though they use a different chemical process. Some plants use different photosynthetic mechanisms, known as C3, C4, and CAM. The latter mechanism is used by plants (such as some 'perching plants') that may have a water conservation problem. These plants open their stomata at night to take in CO2, and dissolve that in a specific chemical. During the day, they close their stomata to conserve water, and process the stored CO2 to produce sugars, etc.


Why is food converted into glucose in plant?

Plants don't eat, they photosynthesize glucose directly from sunlight, Carbon dioxide, water, and several other things


How can plants live in the ocean?

there is carbon dioxide molecules dissolved in the water and the plants take them out and use it to photosynthesize if it cannot find carbon dioxide it will find dissolved oxygen molecules and carry out respiration
