There isn't a zero gravity environment, but if there was, planets wouldn't form. Planets form by very large rock all attracting to each other and gain enough energy that the center pulls the surrounding rock and smooths then into a sphere. So if a zero gravity environment existed. There would be no planets.

∙ 9y agoyes. It seems from the latest experiments plants to do not rely on gravity as much as was previously believed. see news. national geographic .com/ news/ 2012/ 121207- plants-grow-space-station-science/

∙ 11y agothe plant would most likley die because roots grow down because of the gravitationall pull, so the roots would have no idea where to go.
There is also no oxygen in space, but it really depends on if you are growing the plant out in space or in a lab.

∙ 13y agoI don't think they would grow at all because they would need gravity to keep them growing.

They cant, if the did they planet would fall apart, zero-gravity doesnt exist.

How might the different elevations in China encourage the development of different languages and culture?
Looks like you are trying to cheat in your World History class. heh heh.......One reason would be because of the different environments; each would have it's own plants , wildlife, weather,etc...andeach would develop language to describe their particular home...and, if one traveled, they would learnnew language particular to he new elevation/ environment. Customs, the same. People would develop customs that would be unique to their unique environment.
