the roots are trying to find heat and moisture so they can photosynthesize, however they may also be looking for stability and clinging in the crevices of the walls structure

Why seeds can grow in water with calcium?

Calcium is in human bones. It is also used by plants to have strong cell walls. So it makes sense that plants would grow better if the water had some calcium.


How can plants be used to cover walls effectively?

Plants can be used to cover walls effectively by using climbing or trailing plants that can grow vertically or horizontally. These plants can be trained to grow along a trellis or wire system, creating a green wall that provides insulation, reduces noise, and improves air quality. Additionally, using plants with dense foliage can help create a lush and visually appealing wall covering.


Why do plants grow upwards on walls?

Plants grow upwards on walls primarily in search of sunlight, which is essential for photosynthesis. This growth pattern, known as phototropism, occurs as plants respond to light stimuli, elongating their stems toward the light source. Additionally, climbing plants often use walls for support, allowing them to reach greater heights and compete more effectively for light. The upward growth also helps them avoid obstacles and establish a better position in their environment.


Plants are able to grow tall because their cells have rigid?

cell walls made of cellulose that provide structural support, enabling the plant to grow upwards. The rigid cell walls also resist gravity to help the plant maintain its upright structure as it grows taller.


Can pothos climb up walls or other surfaces?

Yes, pothos plants can climb up walls or other surfaces using their aerial roots to attach and grow vertically.


Why is it important for plants to have cell walls hint do plants have skeletons?

Plants do not have skeletons like animals do. Instead, plants have cell walls that provide structure and support to their cells, allowing them to stand upright and grow tall. The cell walls also help protect plant cells from damage and maintain their shape.


Are cell walls just in plants?

There are cell walls in more than just plants. There are cell walls in humans and animals too.
