How do plants manufacture sugar and how do plants respond to light?

Answer 1

I don't know how plants respond to light, but they manufacture sugar by converting carbon dioxide and water into glucose with the energy it receives from the sun. The chemical equation is

CO2 + H2O -------> C6H12O6 + O
(crbn dxd) (water) (glucose) (oxygen)

Plants get their carbon dioxide through their "pores" (called stomata), water through their roots, and light from the sun. The molecules rearrange with the energy provided by the sun and become glucose and oxygen. Plants use the glucose as "food", and disspell the oxygen (which is waste to plants) into the air for us to breathe. A similar process called respiration happens inside humans, but the exact opposite. We use glucose to convert oxygen into energy and carbon dioxide. We breathe out the carbon dioxide for the plants to use, and likewise, the plants breathe out oxygen for us to use. It's one big cycle.

Answer 2

Plants manufacture sugar during photosynthesis. They take in water and carbon dioxide and they produce sugar (glucose) and water. The process requires light energy.

Plants respond to light by turning their leaves and stems toward the light. Plant hormones called auxins are responsible for this mechanism.

Answer 3

they manufacture sugar through photosynthesis and they respond to light because they take in light to make food so where ever light is the plant will usually grow that way

Answer 4

I don't no?
