Water and Plant

Abstract Plants are living things that have fundamental inputs and outputs-the absorption of necessary chemicals and the release of wastes. Plants have a special relationship between their needs and ecosystem in which they live. There are seven basic requirements that plants need in order to grow properly: temperature, light, water, air, nutrients, time, and room to grow. Plants can be grown both indoors and outdoors for food, shelter, clothing, medicine, energy, and pleasure. We should …

…up water and swells, pushing against the inside of the box causing it to swell. Young cells expand and produce new cell wall at the same time. Eventually, the cell wall becomes so thick that the cell can no longer expand and growth stops. If water is reduced during growth, final cell size is reduced. This means fewer, smaller leaves, smaller fruit, shorter, thinner stems and fewer roots. Drought stress results in smaller, weaker plants.
