Plants need sunlight to undergo photosynthesis, a process where they convert sunlight into energy to produce their own food in the form of glucose.
Marine algae are photosynthetic. At depths below 200m there is very little sunlight which would make photosynthesis extremely difficult.
Plants and other photosynthetic organisms use carbon dioxide during photosynthesis to produce sugars and other organic compounds as a source of energy. This process also releases oxygen as a byproduct, which is essential for respiration by plants and other living organisms. The carbon dioxide gas is a key component in the overall carbon cycle of the earth.
Humans are not primarily photosynthetic. Plants are. Plants use sunlight to synthesize chemicals that they need. They do not eat. Humans, in comparison, are omnivorous. We eat food to gain energy, so we do not need photosynthetic skin. However, we humans do synthesize vitamin D with the help of sunlight, so to that small extent we do engage in photosynthesis.
Yes, the sporophyte stage in the plant life cycle is typically photosynthetic. It produces its own food through photosynthesis, utilizing sunlight to convert carbon dioxide and water into energy-rich molecules such as glucose.
Plants need sunlight to undergo photosynthesis, a process where they convert sunlight into energy to produce their own food in the form of glucose.
Photosynthetic organisms need sunlight for photosynthesis, which is their primary source of energy. By living on or near the surface of aquatic ecosystems, they can capture and utilize the sunlight effectively. This placement allows them to maximize their photosynthetic activity and productivity.
They have photosynthetic pigments.They absorb light energy.
there are many organisms that do not require sunlight to live but then there are some that need hosts
it need resources such as air,water, and sunlight to grow and live
no, the slight clue is that they live under the sea where there is no sunlight...
The plant roots remain away from sunlight and these need not to develop photosynthetic tissue. Hence, these remain colorless or white.
Because they need the sunlight to carry out photosynthesis and survive.
My guess is water and sunlight.
Plants and animals need different things because they have different needs. Plants need sunlight because they make their own food and animals need plants.
Lichen is the product of a symbiotic relationship between a fungus and a photosynthetic organism, usually a photosynthetic bacteria or algae. The photosynthetic organism gains a place to live and protection. Most of the organisms that live as part of a lichen need a moist environment and cannot usually live in the areas that lichen can grow; The fungi allows the photosynthetic organism to remain moist. The fungi gains a source of energy from the photosynthetic organism. The photosynthetic organism produces sugars using solar energy which are used by the fungi.
Marine algae are photosynthetic. At depths below 200m there is very little sunlight which would make photosynthesis extremely difficult.
