Questions and Answers

What is the chemical equation for photosynthesis?

  • $C6H12O6 + 6O2 + light + chlorophyll \rightarrow 6CO2 + 6H2O$
  • $6CO2 + 6O2 + light + chlorophyll \rightarrow C6H12O6 + 6H2O$
  • $6CO2 + 6H2O + light + chlorophyll \rightarrow C6H12O6 + 6O2$ (correct)
  • $6CO2 + C6H12O6 + light + chlorophyll \rightarrow 6H2O + 6O2$
  • What is the role of chlorophyll in photosynthesis?

  • Releasing oxygen as a byproduct
  • Activating the water molecules for the reaction
  • Breaking down glucose into carbon dioxide and water
  • Absorbing photons of light and converting light energy into chemical energy (correct)
  • How is the presence of starch detected as a product of photosynthesis?

  • By boiling in alcohol, which changes the color of starch
  • By adding iodine, which turns the starch blue (correct)
  • By exposing to sunlight, which causes starch to appear
  • By mixing with water, which reveals the starch content
  • What happens to the areas of a leaf devoid of chlorophyll when treated with iodine?
