What is the overall equation for photosynthesis?
(a)
What role does chlorophyll play in photosynthesis?
Chlorophyll acts as a nutrient for plant growth.
Chlorophyll absorbs light energy for photosynthesis.
Chlorophyll converts carbon dioxide into glucose.
Chlorophyll releases oxygen during photosynthesis.
What is the significance of carbon dioxide in photosynthesis?
Carbon dioxide is essential for photosynthesis as it is converted into glucose, providing energy for plants.
Carbon dioxide is converted into oxygen, which is essential for plant growth.
Carbon dioxide is used to absorb sunlight during photosynthesis.
Carbon dioxide is a waste product of photosynthesis.
Why is photosynthesis important for life on Earth?
Photosynthesis consumes oxygen and releases carbon dioxide.
Photosynthesis is only important for plants and has no impact on animals.
Photosynthesis occurs only at night when there is no sunlight.
