I ran an experiment by getting three leaves from different trees/bushs and putting them in a dark room. My hypothosis was nothing would happen. After a 10 minutes I came up with these results... hypothosis was correct, nothing happened. New test, same hypothosis. Put in a plasic container for 10 minutes in a dark room. Results.... hypothosis was correct, nothing happened. New test, New hypothosis. Put in a plasic container filled with water for 10 minutes in a dark room. The leaves will recover from their drier state and become moist again. Note these leaves were picked from trees less than an hour ago. Results... hypothosis was correct, The leaves became drier and more firm, and slightly heaver,Though this effect had nothing to do with putting it in a dark room. I ran this experiment just becase I was bored. Stop asking these stupid questions.

Why the leaves of plant kept in dark do not produce starch?

A leaf needs light energy to photosynthesise. The way it can obtain this energy is from a light source, and the dark has no light sources-so the leaf cannot obtain light energy, it cannot photosynthesise. This process involves producing starch (as glucose is made, then converted into starch) and so no photosynthesis=no starch.

a leaf peeling of tradescantia is kept in 10% NaCl . after a few minutes we are likely to see exit of water from the cell.


What would happen if leaves were put in dark for two days?

If leaves are placed in the dark for two days, they would be unable to perform photosynthesis, the process by which they convert light energy into chemical energy. Without light, the leaves would deplete their stored sugars for energy, leading to a decline in their overall health. Prolonged darkness could cause stress to the plant, potentially resulting in leaf yellowing and wilting as the plant struggles to survive without its primary energy source.


What was the purpose of keeping the leaf in the dark and then covering it with a cardboard cut-out?

The purpose of keeping the leaf in the dark is to prevent photosynthesis from happening. By covering it with a cardboard cut-out with a specific design, you can control which parts of the leaf are exposed to light, allowing for experiments on the effects of light on photosynthesis in different areas of the leaf.

Which leaf would contain more chlorophyll a dark green leaf or a light green leaf Is this a trick question?

this is not a trick question it just needs thought a dark green leaf would have more chlorophyll because chlorophyll is the substance that causes the leaf to turn green

What will happen to the leaf's texture if it is placed in a water for a couple of hours?

It depends on how much salt is in the water. If no salt, the leaf will swell. If it is the same amount in the water as in the leaf, then nothing will happen. If more is outside than inside the leaf, it will shrivel.
