The green areas of a leaf contain the type of chlorophyll that is responsible for the process of photosynthesis and which is colored green. It is absent from some areas and those leaf parts are therefore not green and photosynthesis cannot occur there.
Normally, it takes place in the leaves because it absorbs most of the sun's energy than any other part of the plant. When photosynthesis takes place, sugar(glucose) is made to feed the plant, so it basically takes the sunlight from the leaves to provide energy for the plant.
Photosynthesis require a catalyst called chlorophyll, and chlorophyll is green in color.
It is the green pigment, chlorophyll that helps the plants photosynthesis. The parts that are white means that there is no sign of chlorophyll thus photosynthesis is unable to take place.
The green leaves are the bit that absorbs in the sun to make Photosynthesis.Also if you want to test for starch to boil the leaf till it goes white then drip some Iodine And look for a signs traces of starch. That is the long way to find out if the leaves are the ones who develop the phase of Photosynthesis. Hope this helps!
By respiration: glucose + oxygen gives carbon dioxide + water. This process releases energy. Photosynthesis is the exact reverse and absorbs energy.

Elodea is not sterile and they will have bacteria, algae, and even protozoans on the leaves and stems. However, the bacteria and the protozoans will use the oxygen to dissolve into the water.
the roots are brown and the leaves are green orange and yellow leaves. watewr is clear, sugar is white.
yes because if the plants have no pigment ,they will became white.
well based on my science teacher ...... he recently taught us the plant parts and photosynthesis. and there are special cells in the steam that carries nutrients to the petals of a flower or the leaves of a tree :).... hope this helped

Green : Helps in Photosynthesis. White/Colourless : Helps in storing food. Coloured : Attracts the birds/ insects for external pollination
Starch is the main carbohydrate found in plant tubers and seed endosperm in the form of granules. Starch contains mylose and amylopectin molecules. It is found in various carbohydrates such as white bread, potatoes, beans and rice.
By respiration: glucose + oxygen gives carbon dioxide + water. This process releases energy. Photosynthesis is the exact reverse and absorbs energy.

A healthy azalea should not have a white film on the leaves. White film on the leaves of an azalea are a symptom of mildew, a common plant disease. Use a broad-spectrum fungicide to kill the mildew, and remove any dead or fallen leaves to cut down on mildew spores in the area. To prevent mildew in the first place, do not overwater your azaleas and ensure they have good draining soil and adequate sunlight to help dry leaves and flowers after a rain.
It decreases. Photosynthesis depends on the availability of light.
The whitefly could be the cause of the white, sticky stuff on the kumquat leaves. The white substance is called flocculent.
