Photosynthesis Exam Style Questions 1 Answers
A student places a plant into a dark cupboard and partially covers one leaf (leaf A) with a piece of
card. After two days, she carries out a test for starch on leaf A and on one other leaf (leaf B), as
shown below.
leaf A leaf B
The card stops the light from getting to the leaf and

the uncovered areas will contain starch and will therefore
turn blue/black.
