What makes a turnip grow?

Answer 1

Mother Nature

Answer 2

A turnip plant, like all green plants, is able to use the energy of the sun to convert water and carbon dioxide into sugar and oxygen. A little bit of the oxygen is used for the metabolism of the plant, but most is released.

The sugars are converted into more complex molecules, most notably cellulose, and arranged to create new parts of the plant.

The process of extracting energy from light, is called photosynthesis and is carried out by a specialized molecule in the plant called chlorophyll, which is usually green.

The organizing and scheduling of all this converting and building parts of the plant is directed by DNA which is like a computer program. Turnip DNA is just a tiny bit different than the DNA of other green plants, but that is what gives the turnip all its characteristics.

So three things are needed to grow a turnip. A turnip seed, which contains a tiny baby plant and thus the DNA, sunlight, which supplies the energy that is converted into plant materials, and nutrients, water, carbon dioxide, and small amounts of chemicals including Nitrogen and Phosphorus called Fertilizers.
