Most plants would die. They require sunlight for photosynthesis, and without sunlight, they wouldn't be able to produce food for themselves.
There are some that *might* be able to survive if the conditions were right though. Not all plants use photosynthesis for food - some are parasites, and if the host plant was present (and light so it could survive - this would mean having the parasite in a box or something so only it got no light) the parasite plant might still be able to live. Other plants are saprophytes, meaning they only live on decaying matter. If they had the decaying matter they needed, they could live without light.
There are also two kinds of orchids that grow completely underground, so these might survive, to.
So I guess it would depend on which plant you put in the dark.
What else can I help you with?
Can water plants survive in aquarium placed in dark?
Water plants can survive in an aquarium placed in the dark for a limited time, but they will eventually suffer due to the lack of light. Most aquatic plants rely on photosynthesis to produce energy, which requires light. Without sufficient light, they may become weak, stop growing, and eventually die. Additionally, low light conditions can lead to algae growth and other imbalances in the aquarium ecosystem.
In the dark plants cannot?
In the dark, plants cannot photosynthesize effectively due to the lack of light. This results in reduced production of glucose, which is essential for their growth and survival. Without sufficient light, plants may become weak and eventually die.
Can plant grow in the dark?
No, because they need sunlight to grow or they will probably die.
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.
Why is Elodea placed in both flasks?
Elodea is placed in both flasks to show how aquatic plants release oxygen during photosynthesis. By comparing the presence of bubbles in the light and absence of bubbles in the dark, one can observe the effect of light on the process of photosynthesis in Elodea.
what are the differences between two plants when one is kept in dark place and other outside?
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.
Why do plants grow taller in the dark?
plants grow taller in the dark because plant will grow until they find light, but will eventually die.
Can plants germinate without sunlight?
Yes. Tried this experiment and the plants in the dark germinate and grew faster than the plants in the sunlight. But, if you leave it in the dark for too long, its leaves would turn yellow from the lack of chlorophyll and the plants would eventually die. (I tried with green bean plants, so not sure if other plants can) By the way, you will have to make sure that the plants in the dark have enough air and water, if not it will probably die before germinating.
In the dark plants cannot?
In the dark, plants cannot photosynthesize effectively due to the lack of light. This results in reduced production of glucose, which is essential for their growth and survival. Without sufficient light, plants may become weak and eventually die.
Can plants die instally without the sun?
Think about at night do the plants instally die when it get dark? they don't. But if the it was dark for a longer period of time like a few weeks they might die.
What would happen to a plant if it was placed in a de-oxygenated environment?
If plants and trees were placed in a de-oxygenated environment, the plant would die!
Can plant grow in the dark?
No, because they need sunlight to grow or they will probably die.
If the plant is placed inside a dark cupboard what will happen to the plant?
If a plant is placed inside a dark cupboard for an extended period, it will likely not receive sufficient light for photosynthesis, which is crucial for its growth and survival. This lack of light can lead to the plant becoming weak, leggy, and eventually dying due to the inability to produce energy. Additionally, the plant may also have issues with proper root development and nutrient uptake without light.
What happens to plants in the dark?
it can respire but it cant photosynthesis

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.
