Which plant will grow bigger in the dark or light?

Plants grown in the light typically grow bigger than those in the dark because they need light for photosynthesis, which is crucial for their growth and development. Light provides energy for plants to produce food, enabling them to grow taller and have more leaves. Without light, plants tend to become weak and spindly due to the lack of energy source.


What do you conclude about plants in the dark?

Plants in the dark will not be able to undergo photosynthesis, as they require light to produce energy. Without light, plants may not grow properly, may have pale or yellow leaves, and may eventually die if they are not able to receive light for an extended period.


How do plants survive in dark places?

Plants can survive in dark places through a process called etiolation, where they grow tall and thin to reach for light. They may also adapt by increasing their chlorophyll content to maximize light absorption, and by storing energy reserves to sustain themselves. However, prolonged lack of light can weaken plants and inhibit their growth and development.


Do plants need light to respire?

Yes, plants need light to perform photosynthesis, which is the process that produces energy for them. However, respiration is the process by which cells break down food molecules to release energy, and it occurs in both light and dark conditions.


Do plants grow faster in sunlight or dark?

a plant will grow faster in sunlight becuse the sunlight has its minerals that the plant will mke into food adn the dark is not light enough to produce the energy or minerals for a plant to survive offof

How are the dark reactions that occur in plants dependent on the light-reactions?

The dark reactions that occur in plants are dependent on the light reactions because the dark reactions need ATP and NADPH. ATP and NADPH are energy molecules that dark reactions need to do their job.

Could plants grow faster in the dark then in the light?

no because scientificly plants need sunlight to complete photosynthesis so the answer would be no.


What sort of light do plants need?

It depends, most plants need natural sunlight, but some need light from light bulbs, to learn more about flowers, got to the link in related links.


If plants need light to grow why aren't the biggest plants In the desert?

Plants need more than light to grow, they also need water. The desert does not have sufficient water to support large plants except on an oasis.


Do dark surfaces absorb more heat than light or reflective surfaces?

Because darker surfaces need more light because it's a dark surface


What happens to a plant in a dark room?

Plants in the dark receive no light and the plants need the light. They grow because the production of growth hormones is stimulated by the dark/suppressed by sunlight. This is why plants in the dark grow much more than plants in the light. (They will turn yellow because they are not receiving enough sunlight to produce chlorophyll to make the plant green. They will become unhealthy and eventually die.) It is also why plants in a sunny window "lean" toward the light. The side of the plant that is in the shade is producing more growth hormones.


Do plants make food in the dark?

No they can't. They need sunlight for that.
