Sunlight is one of the most important factors for survival of all kinds of human beings. It is especially important for plants. This is because plants make their own food. And this process is not complete without the aid of proper sunlight.
Plants make their food by a process called Photosynthesis. In this process, the energy from the sunlight is converted into chemical energy. This process takes place inside the Chlorophyll which is situated inside Chloroplasts. The light energy is utilized for production of NADPH AND ATP molecules. These molecules actually supply all the plant cells with the required energy. The NADPH electron converts the carbon dioxide into G3P which in turn is used to make glucose for the plant.
It is by the process known as photosynthesis. This word comes from "photos," meaning "light," and "synthesis" or "a putting together." It occurs when green plants use the energy from sunlight to put together foodstuffs from carbon dioxide and water. This food produced is in the form of carbohydrates. At the same time the oxygen in the water is released as free oxygen gas. So, not only our food but also the oxygen in the air we breathe is made available by photosynthesis. Another factor very necessary to life is warmth and, as we have seen, our sun is hot enough to keep us all warm. Its life-giving powers are most evident in the spring when heat from the sun's rays penetrates the frozen earth and wakes the tiny seedlings, bringing their little green noses pushing above ground. The amount of heat that comes to the landmass has an all-important effect on what can grow there. No important vegetation is possible, for example, in places such as the Arctic, where the average temperature of the warmest month stays below 42°F.
With out sunlight the plant will not grow properly I'm not saying it wont grow at all but it'll grow pale and thin with out sunlight because it can't carry out photosynthesis
Without sunlight plants could not make their own food using the process photosynthesis, in which energy from the sunlight is converted into chemical energy :):):)
