Plants kept in the dark will struggle to perform photosynthesis, which requires light to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen. As a result, they may become weak, yellow, and stunted due to a lack of energy and nutrients. Prolonged darkness can lead to plant death as they exhaust their stored energy reserves. Ultimately, without light, most plants cannot sustain their growth and health.

What would happen to a plant that was kept in the dark?

What will happen to the elodea sprigs if it is kept in the dark for 3 weeks?
If elodea sprigs are kept in the dark for three weeks, they will likely experience reduced photosynthesis due to the lack of light. As a result, the plants may become weak, lose their vibrant green color, and eventually die if the dark conditions persist, as they won't be able to produce the energy needed for growth and survival. Additionally, the sprigs may begin to deplete their stored energy reserves, leading to further deterioration.
What would happen to a houseplant if it were planted in rich soil and had all the water it needed but it was kept in a dark room?
The plant would die because plants need light to produce nutrients for its self. A plant gets nutrients from chemically turning light into carbohydrates.
