Most of these could be represented by Temporary Disadvantage or Nuisance Effect limitations on Doesn't Eat or Drink (and a specifically plant-based photosynthesis ability probably limits Doesn't Eat or Drink with "Needs to Drink", probably a -30% limitation).
For Temporary Disadvantage limitations, I'd say that Doesn't Eat or Drink is only being "used" at the times you'd normally need to be eating. So an otherwise-normal human who photosynthesizes that involves putting down roots, leaving them temporarily immobile, would have 3 1/2-hour periods they'd have to do so per day, during which the Temporary Disadvantage (No Legs: Sessile) would have its effects.

They have to get naked, and they have nudity taboos, because amine. They don't put down roots, but do seem to be torpid, IIRC (I haven't watched it in a couple of years).
The show is definitely interesting, basically Battlestar Galactica crossed with Attack on Titan.
