Why do some plants not need green leaves?
The color green in plants comes from the chlorophyll it uses to make food from the energy of the sun. Some plants are not green and can make the food they need themselves using nutrients in soil and water.
Green plants are herbivores?
No green plants are not herbivores they actually olny need sunlight and water to grow.
How are green plants different from animals with respect to the food they need?
Green plants are autotrophs. They prepare their own food with the help of sunlight, carbon dioxide, water, minerals and the green pigment chlorophyll. Plants which doesn't have chlorophyll doesn't have green colour. So, they cannot make their own food. These plants and animals are called heterotrophs as they directly or indirectly depend on green plants for food.
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 do most food chains begin with green plants?
Food chains start with green plants because only green plants are able to convert the suns energy into sugars that all creatures including plant need to grow.
Do green plants need sunlight to make food?
Of Course! They use Photosynthesis. (:
What the plants need to make a food?
Plants make food by a process known as photosynthesis using sunlight, chlorophyll (green pigment in leaves) and water.
Why do green plants need food from the store?
Green plants get their food through photosynthesis, where they convert sunlight, carbon dioxide, and water into energy-rich sugars. They do not need to obtain food from a store as they can produce their own through this process. The nutrients they need, such as minerals, are usually obtained from the soil.
What do you call the green coloring matter plants need to produce food?
Chlorophyll
What is that green pigment that traps energy that plants need to make their own food?
Chlorophyll
Why do plants needwater?
Plants need water to survive. Just like human beings, plants need sunlight, water, and air for photosynthesis to occur, which is the process of green plants making food.
What do green plants need to release energy from food?
Green plants need sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide in order to carry out photosynthesis, the process by which they convert light energy into chemical energy stored in glucose. This glucose is then used by the plants as a source of energy to carry out various cellular processes.
