supposedly if plants carried out photosynthesis and respiration at the same rate, then the plant would have no excess sugars (energy)to last them the night... remembering that photosynthesis would only work in daylight hours. Thus, the plant would starve to death basically every night and there would be no life on the earth. All the plant eaters would die making the meat eaters die with them and then there would be no CO2, which is required in photosynthesis... yeah it would be chaotic.
i would do a little more research if i were you to make sure im right :)
The process of photosynthesis itself is the production of "plant food", so without food, a plant will die, as the primary effect. Then every living thing that feed off plants and bacteria would starve. Every predator that feeds off those animals would also die--a massive chain reaction of death. Basically, almost everything would perish. The only living things that would be left are the very few that can do chemosynthesis and do not rely on light to obtain their energy.
Although photosynthesis is the source of free atmospheric oxygen, virtually all multicellular life would have perished long before the oxygen was gradually depleted.
If photosynthesis stopped, the energy from the warm earth would likely give small life (mainly bacteria) the ability to survive. And it is likely that these would evolve mutations through generations that allow them to photosynthesize, just as that ability had evolved several billion years ago.
Recently (2010), a multicellular organism was discovered that lives without oxygen.
Not everything would die, and indeed, evolution (the change in genetic composition over time) would continue even if life didn't require photosynthesis any longer. Since photosynthesis is so efficient, given that the sun shines on the earth, it would likely arise again due to genetic principles.
When the rate of photosynthesis is higher than the rate of respiration, the excess carbohydrates produced are converted into starch and stored in plants, as is the case of potato plant. In case of oilseeds, the excess carbohydrates are converted to lipids and stored in the embryos.
no, because it depends on the weather, like humidity and etc.
There will be shortage of oxygen and the Animal kingdom will suffer.
The plant's fine - until it runs out of stored "food".
It is not only possible, but essential.
You would have turned into a plant.
Plant metabolism can be defined as the combination of two processes known as photosynthesis and respiration. These processes make it possible for plants to grow and reproduce.
Cellular respiration is a form of oxidation that produces energy by combining glucose and oxygen. Photosynthesis is combining oxygen with sunlight and water to create glucose, a plant's energy form (ours is ATP, Adenosine Triphosphate). They're both energy making processes in organisms, to put it simply. Hope I helped. I'm in grade 7 bio right now and we learned this:) BvR
Photosynthesis is the process in which carbon dioxide is converted to glucose, so carbon is stored.Respiration is the process in which carbohydrates are converted to water and carbon dioxide, so that carbon is released again into the air.During these processes, both animals and plants help themselves survive by either releasing energy or storing it. Meanwhile carbon is returned back to the air.
they contain chlorophil, vital for absorbing sunlight to photosynethise - making 'food' for the plant. they catch water from rain, and it drains from here to the roots, to be soaked up. some plants can clone, making one stem identical to the whole plant, so the leaves can be cloned too, meaning there is more room for photosynthesis to take place. hope this helped.
Chlorophyll is the chemical that gives plants their green color. It is also the chemical responsible for absorbing sunlight and creating carbohydrates for the plant's nutrients from CO2 and Water.

Plant cells carry on photosynthesis, but they do not carry on respiration.
photosynthesis.
Respiration occurs in two compartments - glycolysis in the cytoplasm and the TCA cycle and electron transport chain in the mitochondria. However, cells that are actively photosynthesising do not need to respire because ATP is synthesised in the chloroplast.
it stops and the plant wilts due to osmosis
True. Plants need photosynthesis for food production. Respiration is for energy production
Photosynthesis is making glucose for the plant and only occurs in the plant. While, respiration occurs in both plants and animal enabling them to breathe.
A plant needs photosynthesis to produce food in the form of sugar's. A plant needs respiration to break down in order to release energy stored in the sugar's.
For plant respiration and photosynthesis.
when it dies
A plant uses photosynthesis to create food (glucose) and respiration(glycolysis) to break down the food it has made.
Respiration occurs in both animal and plant cells but photosynthesis occurs in plant cells. Respiration is defined as the oxidation of glucose to release energy, both plant and animal cells respire glucose.
