there are a few layers that let a bit of the sun through so it isn't too strong for the palisade layer. then it can begin making the suns light and energy into food!!
Plants grow tall to compete for sunlight with neighboring plants in order to maximize photosynthesis. Taller plants have an advantage in accessing sunlight, so growing tall allows a plant to capture more light energy for photosynthesis and ultimately produce more energy for growth and reproduction.
Plants compete for resources such as sunlight, water, nutrients, and space to grow. These resources are essential for their growth, development, and reproduction. Plants use different strategies to outcompete other plants for these resources, such as growing taller to reach more sunlight or developing larger root systems to access more water and nutrients.
Sunlight is critical for plants and trees as it is required for photosynthesis, the process by which they convert sunlight into energy to grow and survive. Sunlight provides the energy needed to convert water and carbon dioxide into glucose, which is used as fuel by the plant. Additionally, sunlight is necessary for plants to produce chlorophyll, the pigment that gives plants their green color and is essential for photosynthesis.
Without sunlight, plants can not survive.
Creeper plants begin life on the forest floor where there is little light, and they creep up the trunks of trees until they reach the canopy and are exposed to sunlight. See the Related Links for an illustration.
some plants climb up other plants to reach sunlight,
Yes, but they will not be as green. Also, plants will naturally grow faster without sunlight in the hope that they will be tall enough to reach sunlight.
Yes, plants generally grow faster when they receive sufficient sunlight because sunlight is crucial for photosynthesis, the process through which plants produce energy to grow. Sunlight provides the necessary energy for plants to convert water and carbon dioxide into glucose and oxygen. So, plants that reach sunlight can photosynthesize more efficiently and therefore grow faster.
No, because sunlight can not reach a seed when it is in the soil, but plants still germinate.
Sunlight does not reach this zone, meaning there can be no primary production
Because they do not get the sunlight that they need.
All plants require sunlight for photosynthesis and the sun doesn't reach that deeply into water.
the plant roots do not soak up sunlight they soak up rainwater
because there is not enough sunlight to reach the plant so they cant photosynthesis
Plants grow tall to compete for sunlight with neighboring plants in order to maximize photosynthesis. Taller plants have an advantage in accessing sunlight, so growing tall allows a plant to capture more light energy for photosynthesis and ultimately produce more energy for growth and reproduction.
no and yes. all plants need a good amount of sunlight. the bean plant needs enough sunlight to soak up extra water.
What should be the effect of too much sunlight to growth by plants?the plant might dry up
