Does a tomato plant need direct sunlight or no sunlight?

At least seven hours of sunlight...for photosynthesis best results.The simple answer to questions on light requirements for tomatoes is that you need a minimum of 6 hours to produce fruit, but 8 or more hours of sun will produce the best results in terms of how many tomatoes you get.The reason that light for a tomato plant is so important is that tomato plants convert sunlight into energy. Tomato plants need energy to make their fruit. Therefore, the more sunshine they get, the more energy they have and the more fruit they can produce.

How many hours of sunlight will there be on October 3rd in Anchorage Alaska?

24 hours just like everywhere else. If you mean how much daylight does Anchorage get each day, it varies depending on the time of year. If you were to visit in the summer at the height of the tourist season, say July 4th, you would experience 24 hours of light. Several hours of this time would be much like twilight, not intense sunlight but easily light enough to see very well. The actual sunlight would be around 20 hours or so.

Why is it unsafe if you are using direct sunlight in the laboratory?

I assume you're meaning to use the sunlight to illuminate a microscope slide. The power of sunlight is enough to cause blindness if you stare at it for longer than a few seconds. You can use natural daylight to illuminate a microscope specimen so long as the mirror is not reflecting direct sunlight.


What country gets the most hours of sunlight per year?

Tahe question is really nonsense as posed because the answer is related purely to latitude so includes very many countries. If you mean what country receives the most solar radiation at the surface of the earth, that is parts of Chile and California.
