  • Water
  • Starch
  • Chlorophyll (correct)
  • Glucose
  • What is the purpose of dipping the leaf in iodine drops?

  • To detect the presence of starch (correct)
  • To remove chlorophyll from the leaf
  • To soften the leaf
  • To detect the presence of glucose
  • Why do variegated leaves have white areas?

  • Because they store more glucose than green areas
  • Because they contain more chlorophyll than green areas

  • Study Notes

    Photosynthesis

    • The green pigment found in chloroplasts is chlorophyll, which plays a crucial role in photosynthesis.
    • Dipping a leaf in iodine drops helps to detect the presence of starch, a product of photosynthesis.
    • Variegated leaves have white areas because they lack chloroplasts in those regions, resulting in an inability to undergo photosynthesis.
