• True
• False

Chlorophyll absorbs a higher percentage of _____ and _______ light.

• purple and green
• red and blue
• black and orange
• yellow and green

Most plants appear green because chlorophyll

• absorbs green light.
• absorbs violet light.
• reflects green light.
• does not absorb violet light.

What pigment absorbs sunlight for photosynthesis?

• chloroplast
• thylakoid
• grana
• chlorophyll

Which of the following is the correct equation for photosynthesis?

• 6CO₂ + 6H₂O + light --> 6O₂ + C₆H₁₂O₆
• 6CO₂ + C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6H₂O --> light + O₂ 
• 6O₂ +light + 6H₂O --> 6CO₂ + C₆H₁₂O₆
• C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂ ---> light + 6H₂O + 6CO₂
