How does your garden grow
Our plant is growing bigger everyday thanks to cell division and photosynthesis. Our plant uses the energy it gets from photosynthesis to divide its cells using mitosis. The enzymes important in photosynthesis are, Phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase and ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase. Say the plant doesn't have enough of these enzymes to live successfully. First the DNA would be read and copied by a helicase. The new strand of RNA will find a ribosome that will read it. The ribosome reads the codon which tell it exactly what amino acids to connect to each other. This strand of new amino acids can be anything but in this case they are the enzymes we need for photosynthesis.
