Day, because the water can evaporate. At night it can't because there is no light.

If During the night would gases released from a plant have the same effect on lime water?

No, gases released from a plant during the night may not have the same effect on lime water as during the day. During the day, plants release oxygen through photosynthesis, which can react with lime water to produce a milky precipitate. At night, plants undergo respiration and may release carbon dioxide, which does not react with lime water in the same way.


Do plants lose moisture more in the day or night?

Plants typically lose more moisture during the day than at night. This is primarily due to the process of transpiration, where water vapor is released from small openings called stomata, which usually remain open during daylight to facilitate photosynthesis. Higher temperatures and increased light during the day increase the rate of transpiration, leading to greater moisture loss compared to the cooler, darker conditions of night.


How many stomata are likely to open at night?

In most green plants the stomata are only open during the day. They allow carbon dioxide to reach the cells where the majority of photosynthesis takes place. As they also allow transpiration (water loss) the stomata of most plants close during the night when photosynthesis is not possible. There is a group of mainly desert plants known as CAM plants. These carry out a process called Crassulacean acid metabolism, which effectively allows them to store carbon dioxide in their leaves. In these plants the stomata are normally closed during the day to prevent water loss when temperatures are high, and open during the night when temperatures are lower.


Plants that fix CO2 into organic acids at night when the stomata are open and carry out the Calvin cycle during the day when the stomata are closed are called?

Plants that fix CO2 into organic acids at night when the stomata are open and carry out the Calvin cycle during the day when the stomata are closed are called CAM (Crassulacean Acid Metabolism) plants. CAM plants have adapted their carbon fixation process to avoid water loss during the day by keeping stomata closed, and perform photosynthesis during the night when conditions are cooler and less water loss occurs.


Why is the transport of water fastest at midday and slowest at night?

During midday, the sun is overhead, increasing temperatures and evaporation rates, which promotes water uptake by plants. At night, temperatures drop, leading to decreased transpiration rates and slower water transport in plants. Additionally, stomata close at night, reducing water loss and thus slowing down the overall water transport process.

Is the loss in plants greater during the day or at night?

Day, because the water can evaporate. At night it can't because there is no light.


Is water needed by a plant more during the day or night?

Pretty sure its night. During the day plants need more water because the sun is out.


Why do plants stay alive during cloudy days and at night?

They stay alive by using Dissolved oxygen of water at night and during cloudy time

CAM plants close their what during the day and open them at night?

Cam plants close during the night and open during the day because they are photosensitive and respond to light. To do it experimentally, try with a torch for some time.


Why does the stomata of a desert plant close during the day?

In desert plants, the stomata is open during night. During night, desert plants (also called xerophytes) absorb co2 and form an intermediate. Then during day time when the stomata is closed to prevent loss of water, they use this stored carbon dioxide to perform photosynthesis.

Why do plants droop at night and what causes this phenomenon?

Plants droop at night because they undergo a process called nyctinasty, where they respond to the changes in light and temperature. During the night, plants lose water through transpiration and their cells become flaccid, causing them to droop. This helps the plant conserve water and energy until daylight returns.


Why do plants do opposite breathing at night?

Many plants, called C3 and C4 plants, open their stomas during the day to let in carbon dioxide to instigate the process of cellular respiration. However some plants called CAM plants open their stomas at night. The main reason for this process is due to the physical environment the plants are located in. The majority of CAM plants are located in hot, dry and desert environments where water is scarce. As a result the CAM plants evolved so that they could close their stomas during the day and open them at night, to help retain water, at night the plants can still absorb CO2. Some examples of CAM plants are, cacti, pineapples, and aloe.
