Front

Define photosynthesis.

Back

The process by which green plants use sunlight to synthesize foods with the help of chlorophyll.

Front

What is the role of chlorophyll in photosynthesis?

Back

Chlorophyll absorbs sunlight and converts it into chemical energy.

Front

What is the difference between genotype and phenotype?

Back

Genotype refers to the genetic makeup of an organism, while phenotype refers to the observable traits.

Front

What are stem cells?

Back

Undifferentiated cells that have the potential to develop into different cell types.

Front

What is the significance of gene expression in biology?

Back

Gene expression determines how genes are turned on or off, influencing cell function and identity.
