For a leaf, or any plant, to make food, it needs to go through a process called photosynthesis. In order to photosyntesize, a plant needs sunlight, water, and soil.

What do plants need to make their own food and energy?

Plants need sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide to make their own food and energy through photosynthesis. Sunlight provides the energy needed for the process, while water and carbon dioxide are used to produce glucose, which is the plant's food source.


What kind of plant reproduction occurs when a root stem or leaf producers a new plant?

its a type of propigation either the leaf, root, or steam. how this works is they take a peice of the root leaf and or stem into the soil with a piece of the plant sticking out of the soil. what happens is an the plant grows from these they will star growing roots and root hairs(which absorbs water and nutrients)


Plants need oxygen to release the energy in the food that they make?

Plants require oxygen during cellular respiration to break down the stored energy in food molecules and produce ATP for growth and metabolic processes. This process occurs in plant mitochondria and is essential for plant survival.


How is leaf venation important?

Leaf venation is the pattern in which leaf veins are organized. Parallel veins are all running parallel to each other. Netted palmate are all originating from a single point. Netted pinnate are all branching off from one central vein.


How do you detect glucose in a plant's leaf?

In order to detect glucose in a plant's leaf, you will need several items, including leaves, a beaker, a boiling tube, Tollen's reagent, and Fehling's reagent. If the leaf contains glucose, the test-tube containing the Tollen's reagent will turn a silver color.

What happens if chloroplasts are absent in a plant cell?

Chloroplasts= Photosynthesis=Sugar No chloroplasts means no more photosynthesis to produce compounds like glucose that the plant uses for energy. We eat our food and then digest it to get high energy compounds like glucose. Plants use chloroplasts to make food, then they digest it. No chloroplast, no plant.
