Pre-Assessment on Photosynthesis

What is photosynthesis?

• A chemical reaction during which animals and plants convert radiant energy from the Sun to chemical energy

• A process that produces water.

• A chemical reaction during which plants convert radiant energy from the Sun to chemical energy

• A process plants do at night when there is no sunlight.

The bubbles in the test tube are the gases produced by photosynthesis, what will happen if we take away the light source shinning on the plant?

• The bubbles will increase, because photosynthesis will produce more oxygen

• The bubbles will decrease, because photosynthesis will produce less oxygen

• The bubbles will continue at the same rate because photosynthesis does not depend on light

• The plant will die because it will be too dark
