Plants can perceive light and dark through photoreceptors that detect changes in light intensity and quality. During the day, they utilize sunlight for photosynthesis, converting light energy into chemical energy. At night, they rely on stored energy to continue cellular processes. Additionally, some plants exhibit photoperiodism, responding to the length of day and night to regulate flowering and other growth activities.
A green plant would not be able to obtain sufficient light for photosynthesis while growing in a dark cellar. Without light, the plant cannot convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen, which are essential for its growth and energy. This lack of light would ultimately lead to stunted growth and the plant's inability to thrive. Additionally, without adequate light, the plant may become leggy as it stretches toward any available light source.
Trying to grow to reach a light source
No, amaryllis plants require light to grow and photosynthesize. Without light, they will not be able to produce chlorophyll, which is necessary for their green color and growth. If grown in the dark, the plant will not survive.
Beans grown in the dark tend to grow faster than those grown in the light because they allocate more energy towards elongating their stems to reach for light. In the absence of light, the energy is redirected into stem growth instead of leaf development, resulting in taller plants.
Mushrooms are a type of fungi that can be eaten and are often grown in the dark. They do not rely on photosynthesis like plants do, so they are able to thrive in low light conditions.
The plant kept in light likely continued to grow through photosynthesis by converting light energy into chemical energy for growth. The plant kept in the dark likely didn't grow much, as it depends on light for photosynthesis to produce energy for growth.
in the chlorophyll
Dark. There is no light. It has no plant life because there is no light to make it grow, even though it is in the water.
it will grow fast in light because plants need light
The project is on necessity of light for photosynthesis. Therefore, iodine solution is needd to test the formation of starch in the plant kept in light by photosynthesis. The plant kept in dark will show the absence of starch meaning there by no photosynthesis has taken place in dark.
When a plant gets light it photosynthesises (makes food) in the dark it respires. Hope this answers your question:)
nope, and yes see if you don't have the plant in the light, the plant won't have energy to start photosynthesis but when in light it does
The plant placed in dark will not carry out photosynthesis whereas the plant placed in light will carry out photosynthesis. if the conditions are kept constant for a long time then the plant placed in dark will wilt and die whereas the plant placed in light will continue to survive.
In a dark closet because the plant will want to find sunlight so it grows upwards quickly to try and find the sunlight
The one in the light would grow better.
the plant dies because it needs food, and plant food comes from sunlight
When a plant gets light it photosynthesises (makes food) in the dark it respires. Hope this answers your question:)
