However, because the prickly pear is a desert plant it has adapted to the dry soil of the desert, and does not need much water to keep it satisfied. Photosynthesis occurs when plants take light energy and converts it into chemical energy.
A measuring cup can be used to measure volumes of liquids. This cup measures volume in units of cups, fluid ounces, and milliliters. Volume is the quantity of three-dimensional space enclosed by some closed boundary, for example, the space that a substance (solid, liquid, gas, or plasma) or shape occupies or contains. Volume is often quantified numerically using the SI derived unit, the cubic meter.
Area is length by length, so the basic unit of area is a square that is 1 meter on each side. The Unit is meters Ã meters, which is written m2 (square meters). Volume is length by length by length, so the basic unit of volume is a cube that is 1 meter on each side.
