Growing plants QUIZ

What is the process by which plants make their food?

• Respiration

• Digestion

• Photosynthesis

• Transpiration

What gas do plants take in during photosynthesis?

• Hydrogen

• Nitrogen

• Carbon dioxide

• Oxygen

What is the main source of energy for photosynthesis?

• Sunlight

• Water

• Carbon dioxide

• Soil nutrients

How do plants use sunlight in the photosynthesis process?

• Plants use sunlight to absorb nutrients from the soil.

• Plants use sunlight to produce heat for growth.

• Plants use sunlight to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen during photosynthesis.

• Plants use sunlight to create carbon dioxide and water.

What do plants release as a byproduct of photosynthesis?

• Carbon dioxide

• Glucose

• Nitrogen

• Oxygen

Why do plants need sunlight to grow?

• Plants grow better in the dark to conserve energy.

• Plants need sunlight to produce oxygen for animals.

• Plants need sunlight to perform photosynthesis, which is essential for their growth.

• Sunlight is necessary for plants to absorb water efficiently.

How many hours of sunlight do most plants need each day?

• 4 to 6 hours

• 10 to 12 hours

• 2 to 4 hours

• 6 to 8 hours

What happens to a plant if it does not get enough sunlight?

• The plant will change color and become more vibrant.

• The plant will develop deeper roots and thrive.

• The plant will experience stunted growth and may eventually die.

• The plant will grow faster and produce more flowers.

Can plants grow in artificial light?

• Plants cannot photosynthesize under artificial light.

• Yes, plants can grow in artificial light.

• Plants only grow in natural sunlight.

• Artificial light is harmful to all plants.

What role do leaves play in the process of photosynthesis?

• Leaves primarily serve as a protective barrier against pests.

• Leaves mainly function to store water for the plant.

• Leaves are essential for photosynthesis as they capture sunlight and facilitate the conversion of carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen.

• Leaves are responsible for nutrient absorption from the soil.
