Plants and photosynthesis quiz

15 Questions

Quiz Description

This particular quiz is made up of 15-20 exam standard questions set for students studying biology. Here you will find similar quizzes to these plants and Photosynthesis quizzes which are all part of Biology. We all know green plants are used as food, when mature after growth, now when these plants are ready, they are used as food by man.

These plants also require material nutrients for their growth, so as to provide good food for man as well. And they acquire their nutrients through photosynthesis.

Photosynthesis is the process by which green plants manufacture their food using energy from sunlight, and moisture/water to convert Carbon Dioxide into sugars. The byproduct of this process is the release of Oxygen into the atmosphere. This Oxygen is then used by man for proper respiration which is one of the importance of photosynthesis, It helps to balance the CO2 and O2 concentration in the atmosphere.

This quiz is much broader but I believe you have an idea of what photosynthesis with plants is all about. You will find more exciting quizzes on our website. So in preparation for your upcoming Exams, or if you are just interested in knowing how your plants get to be how they are and edible, try out the quiz below. It will maximize your scope of knowledge after you receive corrections.

<p>In which part of a flowering plant will you find most of the cells like cell 2 containing chloroplasts?</p>
Correct
  • 1:
    flowers
  • 2:
    roots
  • 3:
    stem
  • 4:
    leaves
7:

Which of the following is TRUE?


Correct
  • 1:
     plants cannot make food without light shining on the leaves
  • 2:
     through their roots, plants absorb food from the soil
  • 3:
     in their leaves, plants store food as glucose
  • 4:
     plants can make food without chlorophyll in the leaves
8:

Which of the following is most likely to be TRUE?


Correct
  • 1:
     Plants kept for a long time in the dark or poor light, tend to grow larger leaves or the leaves turn a darker green, to try to increase photosynthesis.
  • 2:
     Plants that naturally grow in the shade often have small leaves to minimise heat loss.
  • 3:
      Plants use glucose from stored starch to respire and survive.
  • 4:
    There is less carbon dioxide around plants at night because it has been used up in photosynthesis during the daylight hours.
9:

Which of the following is TRUE about plants?


Correct
  • 1:
     if a plant is enclosed in an air tight glass jar, and the jar covered in black plastic sheeting, the oxygen level will fall and the carbon dioxide level will rise
  • 2:
     under trees, grass will not grow as tall as in open land, because it cannot root as deeply
  • 3:
     most of the palisade cells for photosynthesis are on the underside of leaves
  • 4:
     one big root is more efficient than lots of little roots for absorbing nutrients and water
10:

Which of the following is TRUE about plants?
