In a photosynthesis experiment, a plant is left in bright sunlight for several hours. A leaf is then removed from the plant and tested for starch, using iodine solution.

The first diagram shows the leaf from the plant that was used in the experiment.

Which diagram shows the result of the experiment?

Four test-tubes are set up as shown in the diagram and left in full sunlight.

After several hours, which test-tube contains the most dissolved oxygen?

Plants manufacture their own supplies of carbohydrate.

What are the raw materials and the waste product of this process?

A plant with variegated leaves has the starch removed from its leaves by placing it in a dark cupboard for 48 hours.
Black paper is then fixed on one leaf as shown and the plant is exposed to light.

After 24 hours, which part of the leaf contains starch?

A plant with striped leaves similar to the one below was kept in bright light for six hours.
A leaf was taken from the plant and the chlorophyll removed.
It was then tested for starch using iodine solution.

Which diagram shows the result of the test?

The diagram shows a cross-section of part of a leaf.

Which type of cell is found in layer X?

An experiment was done using the apparatus shown in the diagram.
The carbon dioxide content of the water in each tube was measured at the start and again three hours later.

In which tube would there be a decrease in carbon dioxide content?
