First, plants cannot photosynthesize during the night because the sunlight is not there.
Plants create food through photosynthesis during the day, and they eat that food during the night.

No. Some plants need a certain air temperature, but they all cease photosynthesis immediately they lose sunlight. It would be like switching off the power.
Also, dense cloud will slow and sometimes stop it.

no...the main factor needed for photosynthisis is sunlight so therefore at night there is no sunlight causing the plant not to photosynthesize

No, they absorb during the day and synthesize at night.
