TODAY WAS ABOUT MOVIES AND QUIZES

1- Ok so the question is why do plants face the sun ligh?
First plants can grow without sunlight and it would grow really fast however groeing with sunlight make it more healthier. So we could generally say that the part in the shade grows faster than the part in teh sun so it make the plant bents to where the sun is . This process is called Phototropism.

2- Dead and decaying plant materials. Detritus is the result of the activity of decomposers (organisms that decompose organic material). Technically there is nuthing called a detritus cycle. As the detritus food chian takes place in the carbon cycle, so they count as the left overs of the decomposers. These left overs ends up as nutrients for the producers once more. So its counted as a cyle. From the producer to the rpimary consumer, then second consumer, then tertary consumer, then maybe fourth and fifth consumer. Then the dead bodies decompse and the decoposeres ( bacteria) eat the left overs of the energy in the dead bodies. Then the rest of the dead bodies or the left overs of the decomposers are called DETRITUS goes to the plants or as we call them the producers as nutrients and over again. Thats the cycle.
