Best Answer

If you could take plants to Mars without them dying, it would help making Mars a planet that can support an ecosystem. Plants produce Oxygen which is crucial for animal survival (this includes humans, too, because technically humans are a type of animal). If Mars could successfully support an ecosystem, we could colonize it, which would help resolve issues with overpopulation.

Could you move plants to Mars since plants breath carbon dioxide and wait until they make enough oxygen and move humans there?

no. Mars' surface has no liquid water, and nearly no nutrients in the soil. Also, the average day temperature is -14 degrees so no plants would be able to grow there. Also, the amount of atmospheric pressure on mars would mean breathing, even if there was oxygen would be incredibly hard


What kind of food can you bring to Mars?

If plants were to grow on Mars the proper artificial environment would have to be created by a colony and they could grow just about anything they chose. I would imagine it would be plants that would provide food for the colony.
