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 base unit for volume is the cubic metre, because the units are cubed, the normal prefixes are a little confusing, so the non-SI unit litre is used for most everyday volumeâ¦s. one cubic metre is 1000 litres.   Answer There is no SI base unit for volume. Its unit is the cubic metre (m3), which is a derived unit.
