Question

What will happen if plants cannot store their food?

Answer 1

• Plants can store their food by the process of photosynthesis. 
• Some of the food is used by the plants for various metabolic processes. 
• The remaining food is stored in the various parts of the body such as roots, stem, leaves, seeds, fruits etc. 
• This stored food helps the plants to survive in unfavourable conditions. 
• Other animals also depend on plants for their food. 
• If the plants cannot store the food, the animals that depend on plants get hungry and gradually die. 
• When unfavourable conditions like drought appear, the plants will also ultimately die.
