No. The nucleus stores most of the genetic material--DNA (and the messenger RNA that is sent out of the nucleus into the cytoplasm of the cell to be translated)--except for the DNA that's in the chloroplasts and the mitochondria. Plants are autotrophic, meaning they are "self feeding", and the products of photosynthesis--photosynthate, all those sugars, all those carbohydrates--provide the food for the plant, along with the nutrients and such that the plant takes up from the roots because they're dissolved in water, and the products of photosynthesis allow the plant to grow and provide the energy for the nutrients and such to work within the plant. But because proteins require nitrogen to be made, and nitrogen is taken up from the plant through the soil (NO3- or NH4+), plants don't just get food from the sugars created in photosynthesis. You could say that the nucleus provides the pattern for the ribosomes to be made, though, (in the DNA, to be transcripted into messenger RNA, to be translated into a polypeptide chain) and ribosomes are where the proteins are synthesized.
What else can I help you with?
The food plants make is what?
Photosynthesis
Why don't plants have a nucleus?
nucleus are for cells. plants themselves dont have a nucleus, but the cells that make them up do. a plant doesnt need a nucleus. tecnicly speeking, you cant prove a negative, so its hard to answer your question. if you had a hypothisis of why a plant should have a nucleus, that would be good to put up as a question, but its tough to answer your question as is. Plants have multiple cells, and the cells have nuclei. (Nuclei is plural for nucleus).
Do plants make food in the dark?
No they can't. They need sunlight for that.
Name given to plants because they make their food?
The name given to plants because they make their food through photosynthesis is producer. Only plants can be producers. Hope it helped! :)
What controls the chlorophyll to help the cell trap light to make food?
The pigment chlorophyll in chloroplasts captures light energy to drive photosynthesis, the process by which plants make food. Chlorophyll is controlled by the plant's genetic machinery to optimize its absorption of light in the visible spectrum for efficient food production. Additionally, various environmental factors such as light intensity, temperature, and nutrient availability can influence chlorophyll production and function in plants.
Why do plants need nucleus?
They need it for food production and protein. I think
Why can green plants make food?
plants can make food through photosynthesis
What is the process by which plants make food is?
The process in which plants make their food is known as photosynthesis.
Which plants make food from sunlight?
all plants make food by the help of sunlight
What is the process by which green plants make their food?
the process by which green plants make their food is photosnythesis.
Plants use energy in what to make food?
Plants use the energy in sunlight to make food
What kind of food does plants make?
Plants make sugars.
Does the nucleus make food?
The nucleus is the "brain" or control inside a cell. Therefore, it does not eat.
How colourless plants make their food?
Colorless plants make their food from chloroplasts. They can absorb food and nutrients from the ground or make food from the process called photosynthesis.
The food plants make is what?
Photosynthesis
How can food make their own food?
Plants make their own food by the photosynthesis process. Plants convert sunlight into glucose, or sugar, the food of plants. This happens in the chlorophyll of leaves.
Any plants that do not make their own food?
All plants can make their own food, even those with leaves that are not green
