To clarify: We boiled alcohol with a leaf and tested for starch with iodine (present in the veins), We also covered a leaf with tin foil and came back the next day. The leaf was more green in the veins and more discolored farther away from the veins. This lab was suppose to show us glucose is made by the leaf, but all it proves is that starch is in the veins, right?

What is the purpose of detecting the presence of starch in leaf?

It can be used to prove that photosynthesis has happened.


Suggest an experiment to prove that theleaf is the organ of photosynthesis?

Iodine test. The leaves of plants absorb light & perform photosynyhesis. photosynthesis means In the presence of chlorophyll & light carbon dioxide & water combines to form carbohydrates(sugars). Leaf dipped into iodine solution after exposing to light will become blue in colour. It shows the presence of carbhydrates. That means leaf is the organ doing photosynthesis. generally iodine reacts with Carbohydrates and gives blue color.


Where on the leaf is the stomata found and how to prove that?

Stomata are found on the underside of plant leaves. To prove this, you can use a microscope to observe and identify the stomata on a leaf's underside. Staining techniques can also be employed to make the stomata more visible for identification.


What evidence do you have that phtotsynthesis occurs in plants?

if you extratct the oxygen of leaf disks and put them on water in a well lit environment, and they sink at first but later rise, that would prove that photosynthesis occurs in plants because oxygen is a product of photosynthesis abd would help the disks float

Where is the last location on cryptids island?

Once you have gotten the lantern and the footprint photo from the Himalayas, you still cannot prove the Yeti. You can prove the other three cryptids (Nessie, the chupacabra, the Jersey Devil). Once you do, a fifth location will appear on the helicopter controls: you must go to the Northwest to chase Bigfoot.
