Why would allowing a plant to undergo photosynthesis 24 hours a day cause it to grow faster?

Photosynthesis involves two biochemical processes, known as light reaction and dark reaction. During light reaction, the plant absorbs light and turns it into energy. ... Because dark reactions do not require the absence of light, plants will remain healthy when exposed to light 24 hours a day.
