Prove with the help of experiment that Carbon dioxide is necessary for photosynthesis? 

1 Answer

Answer :

i) Take a de-starch potted plant.

ii) Put some potassium hydroxide in flask and put a cork on its mouth.

iii) Place the plant in light for photosynthesis.

iv) Select a leaf of plant but do not pluck it.

v) Place half of this leaf inside the flask.

vi) Put the pot of plant in light for 5-6 hours.
