If you collected the gas produced by the photosynthesizing leaves how would you check if it contained oxygen?

The test for oxygen is to insert a glowing splint into a test tube and see if it glows brighter or re-ignites.

What are the xylem and phloem of plants used for?
Xylem tissue is used mostly for transporting water from roots to stems and leaves but also transports other dissolved compounds. Phloem is responsible for transporting food produced from photosynthesis from leaves to non-photosynthesizing parts of a plant such as roots and stems.
What is special about the way leaves are arranged?
Plant leaves are basically photosynthesizing organs and therefore need sunlight. The arrangement of leaves such as opposite and decussate help the plant to receive maximum sun shine hence are better adapted.
Do plants make food all the time?
No-only when they are photosynthesizing. This occurs when there is light, carbon dioxide, and chlorophyll (green pigment, usually in the leaves). Therefore, it doesn't occur in the dark or when the leaves have fallen in the colder months.
What are the gases produced while you burn leaves?
The gases that are produced while burning leaves are 1) Carbon Dioxide 2) Carbon Monoxide
What happens to the sugar produced in the leaves of a plant?
it is changed to starch before it can be stored in the leaves,stems,or roots.
What is the photosynthesizing organism of a plant?
The plant's leaves perform photosynthesis
Do you cut off the leaves of a tulip if they are floppy?
Do not cut the leaves until they have yellowed. If they are green, they are still photosynthesizing.
What does it mean when a marijuana plant has 13 leaves?
It means that it's photosynthesizing well... That's all

What would be produced as the result of vegetative growth?
The leaves are produced as the result of vegetative growth.

What is the function of radicle?
It's the first thing to emerge out of a seed and down into the ground to allow the seed to suck up water and send out its leaves so that it can start photosynthesizing.
What is pohosynthesize?
photosynthesizing is what most plant species do with their leaves. they take sunlight out of the air and change it into glucose (usable energy) with some special glands called Xylem. it is comparable to eating in humans.
Why would the rainfall decrease if the forests were cut down?
Trees draw water out of the ground and sweat it out there leaves when photosynthesizing aka transpiration. The water may have just remained underground and not evaporated otherwise.
What are the gases produced while you burn leaves?
The gases that are produced while burning leaves are 1) Carbon Dioxide 2) Carbon Monoxide
What part of a plant contains chlorophyll?
The pigment chlorophyll is contained in the chloroplastsof the leaves.
