Can plants survive and grow without any sunlight at all?
In short: While most plants rely on solar energy to thrive, this video explores the possibility of photosynthesis occurring through alternative light sources rather than the sun.
The video examines the fundamental biological processes that allow plants to survive, specifically questioning whether sunlight is the only viable energy source for photosynthesis. By looking beyond solar radiation, it investigates how alternative light sources might sustain plant life.
