How Does Your Garden Grow?

1.)  The things that are keeping our Kale plant healthy and ever-growing are the processes of the water, nitrogen, and carbon cycles, which give the plant nutrients, and also photosynthesis, which is the main cause of the plant's growth. Photosynthesis is when the plant uses sunlight to produce ATP (energy which comes from cellular respiration).The ATP allows the plant's cells to keep dividing in a process called mitosis. This means that the cells multiply, and the plant gets larger.


2.)  Enzymes are proteins that speed up reactions by lowering the amount of energy they need. Just like all enzymes, If the nucleus receives a signal saying that there needs to be more Rubisco and PEPC, then the ribosomes would synthesize a chain of amino acids, which would then be folded into the protein/enzyme that was needed.
