✍️ ЁЯФ╣ Very Short Answer Type Questions
What is photosynthesis?
ЁЯСЙ Answer:
ЁЯМЮ Photosynthesis is the process by which plants prepare food using sunlight, carbon dioxide, water and chlorophyll
➡️ Produces glucose ЁЯНм and oxygen ЁЯМм️
Which part of the plant performs photosynthesis?
ЁЯСЙ Answer:
ЁЯНГ Leaves are the main site of photosynthesis
What are stomata?
ЁЯСЙ Answer:
ЁЯФм Tiny pores on leaves
➡️ Help in gas exchange (CO₂ in, O₂ out)
Which gas is released during photosynthesis?
ЁЯСЙ Answer:
ЁЯМм️ Oxygen (O₂)
What are the two transport tissues in plants?
ЁЯСЙ Answer:
ЁЯМ┐ Xylem and Phloem
ЁЯза ЁЯФ╣ Short Answer Type Questions
What role does chlorophyll play in photosynthesis?
ЁЯСЙ Answer:
ЁЯЯв Chlorophyll absorbs sunlight ЁЯМЮ
➡️ Helps convert CO₂ + water into glucose + oxygen
Why is the iodine test done in leaves?
ЁЯСЙ Answer:
ЁЯзк To check presence of starch
➡️ Confirms photosynthesis
What does the phloem transport in plants?
ЁЯСЙ Answer:
ЁЯНм Transports food from leaves to other parts
What is the function of the xylem?
ЁЯСЙ Answer:
ЁЯТз Transports water & minerals from roots
Why is carbon dioxide important for photosynthesis?
ЁЯСЙ Answer:
ЁЯМл️ CO₂ is a raw material needed for food formation
ЁЯУЦ ЁЯФ╣ Descriptive Answer Type Questions
How do plants use the glucose produced during photosynthesis?
ЁЯСЙ Answer:
⚡ Provides energy
ЁЯНм Extra stored as starch
➡️ Stored in roots, stems, fruits
Explain the process of water transport in plants.
ЁЯСЙ Answer:
ЁЯТз Roots absorb water
➡️ Xylem carries it to leaves
➡️ Supports photosynthesis
Describe an activity to show the release of oxygen during photosynthesis.
ЁЯСЙ Answer:
ЁЯМ┐ Water plant in sunlight
ЁЯлз Bubbles collected in tube
➡️ Shows oxygen release
What happens when a plant is kept in the dark for 36 hours?
ЁЯСЙ Answer:
ЁЯМС No photosynthesis
➡️ No starch formed
➡️ Iodine test negative
How does temperature affect photosynthesis?
ЁЯСЙ Answer:
ЁЯМб️
- Low temp → slow
- High temp → stops
- Moderate → best
ЁЯЪА ЁЯФ╣ Exploring Questions
Why is photosynthesis essential for all living beings?
ЁЯСЙ Answer:
ЁЯМН Provides food ЁЯНм & oxygen ЁЯМм️
➡️ Base of food chain
How does the design of leaves help in photosynthesis?
ЁЯСЙ Answer:
ЁЯНГ Broad & flat → absorbs sunlight
ЁЯФм Many stomata → gas exchange
What would happen if all photosynthetic organisms disappeared?
ЁЯСЙ Answer:
❌ No oxygen
❌ No food
➡️ Life on Earth ends
How do plants balance oxygen and carbon dioxide in the environment?
ЁЯСЙ Answer:
ЁЯМЮ Photosynthesis → CO₂ in, O₂ out
ЁЯМЩ Respiration → O₂ in, CO₂ out
Why is respiration in plants important despite photosynthesis?
ЁЯСЙ Answer:
⚡ Respiration releases energy
➡️ Needed for growth & survival
