Question

A scientist follows this procedure to test whether plants have been performing photosynthesis. Place Plant X in a dark closet and Plant Y on a sunny windowsill. Wait several days, then remove a leaf from each plant. Boil leaves in alcohol to remove the chlorophyll. Add a chemical indicator that detects sugars. (Dark purple = sugars are present; dark orange = sugars are not present) What results will the scientist most likely obtain when placing drops of the indicator on the leaves

Answer 1

the scientist obtain that plants perform photosynthesis process in the presence of sunlight and chlorophyll.

Step-by-step explanation:

they perform photosynthesis process taking water and carbon dioxide in the presence of sunlight and chlorophyll and produce glucose and liberate oxygen gas. Hence sugars are obtained from this process.
