What component of the earths atmosphere exists as a result of photosynthesis?
Photosynthesis converts carbon dioxide into oxygen. Therefore, much of the oxygen in our atmosphere is present due to photosynthesis.
Why did the leaf turn blue black when iodine was added in the starch test?
because photosynthesis has occured in the leaf. starch is produced and turns iodine blue-black indicating the presence of starch.
What openings allow the exchange of gases between the environment and the air spaces inside the leaf?
i first thought it was stoma. but its stomata.
What is a food substance found in leaves?
The food substances that are found in leaves are known as chloroplasts. They contain chlorophyll which facilitates the process of photosynthesis.
What process was primarily responsible for the development of the present percentage of free oxygen in the Earth's atmosphere?
photosynthesis
Why is the leaf a site of photosynthesis?
because it has special cells allowingcertain substances in and out.
What part of a leaf contains chemicals needed for photosynthesis?
The chloroplast houses the chlorophyll, a green substance which traps sunlight and uses it to convert simpler substances into complex substances during the process of photosynthesis.
Which substances is used to remove chlorophyll from a green leaf during photosynthesis?
alcohol is used to remove chlorophyll
What substances are in variegated leaves?
A leaf on a variegated plant is a leaf of different colors. Usually green and cream or pale brown.
When light energy from the Sun strikes a leaf how is the energy conserved?
When light energy strikes a leaf then chlorophill (a) present in leaf absorb that light energy . By use of that energy photosynthesis occurs.
How do plants with foliage that is not green in color photosynthesize?
Photosynthesis is accomplished by chlorophyll. Regardless of the color of the leaf, the cholophyll is still present and therefore photosynthesis still occurs.
Which organelles have to be present in a plants leaf in order for photosynthesis to occur?
The chloroplast is the main component/organelle in the process of photosynthesis. Also this organelle is unique to plant cells.
what two substances enter and leave the leaf in photosynthesis?
The leaf first takes in Carbon Dioxide, or CO2, into it's self through the bottom of the leaf. It uses the CO2 and makes sugars out of it, water, and sunlight. This reaction makes a byproduct, Oxygen, that the leaf lets out, which we use to breathe.
What is the material in the leaf that must be present for photosynthesis to occur?
The material is Chlorophyll and it comes from a green part of a plant cell called the chloroplast.
Which organelles must be present within a cell of a geranium leaf for respiration and photosynthesis?
a chloroplast, which captures sunlight for photosynthesis
What are the substances needed for photosynthesis. what substance are produce during photosynthesis?
No
What are the substances needed for photosynthesis and what substances are produced during photosynthesis?
CO2 and water is needed. Oxygen and glucose are produced
