"Plants don't eat like people do. Instead, they use sunlight for energy to grow and stay alive. If there were no plants, what would animals and people eat?people really need the sun.

"As a tree grows it stores the sun's energy in its wood. When the wood is burned, it releases the sun's energy as heat and light.

Sunlight is a necessity for plants to perform photosynthesis which is how they make food (glucose). This glucose is needed for the plant so survive and more is needed to help the plant grow. Without the solar energy from the sun plants can't live or grow.

Also, if a plant does not receive enough sunlight, it will not grow as much as it would otherwise. However, too much sunlight can also harm plants. It depends on the particular plant as to how much sunlight is needed.

Which of the following would you need in order to compare the effect of two different fertilizers on plant growth?

To compare the effect of two different fertilizers on plant growth, you would need identical plant species, same environmental conditions (light, water, temperature), controlled experimental setup, measured growth parameters, and a sufficient sample size for statistical analysis.


Will salt have the most effect on plant growth?

Excessive salt can inhibit plant growth by disrupting water balance and nutrient uptake in plants. It can also cause leaf burn and root damage, ultimately leading to stunted growth or plant death. It's important to maintain soil salinity at appropriate levels for healthy plant growth.


Does human voice effect plant growth?

Studies have shown that talking to plants can potentially have a positive effect on their growth, as vibrations from sound waves can stimulate plant cells and promote growth. While human voices may not have a direct impact on plant growth, some believe that the act of speaking to plants can create a nurturing environment that benefits their overall well-being.


What is the independent variable in this question is plant growth affected by the color of light in which it grows?

The independent variable in this question is the color of light. It is the factor that is being manipulated or changed to observe its effect on the dependent variable, which is plant growth.
