WHAT DO I EAT? The prickly pear, like most other plants, eats through photosynthesis and drinks water. 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.
The SI derived unit for volume is the cubic meter. 1 cubic meter is equal to 4226.75281986 cups, or 1000 liters. Note that rounding errors may occur, so always check the results.âº Definition: Litre.
