Explanation:
EXPERIMENT TO PROVE THE NECESSITY OF CARBON DIOXIDE IN PHOTOSYNTHESIS - DEFINITION
To prove the necessity of carbon dioxide in photosynthesis following steps need to do
Insert a part of the leaf of a destarched plant into a conical flask containing potassium hydroxide.
Potassium hydroxide solution absorbs the carbon dioxide gas from the air present in the glass bottle.
Leave the plant sunlight.
After few hours, perform a starch test to this and another leaf of the same plant.
Observation-
Leaf exposed to the atmosphere are bluish black.
Leaf exposed to KOH does not change to blue-black colour
Result- Starch is present in the green part of the leaf.
Conclusion- Presence of starch proves that chlorophyll is necessary for photosynthesis as it traps sunlight.

Answer:
EXPERIMENT TO SHOW THAT SUNLIGHT IS NECESSARY FOR PHOTOSYNTHESIS - DEFINITION
To prove the necessity of sunlight in photosynthesis following steps need to do
Take a plant with destarched leaf.
Leaf is partially covered with black paper on which a design is cut.
Expose this plant to sunlight for few hours and perform a starch test with iodine solution.
Observation-
Covered leaf part shows brown colouration.
Exposed leaf shows blue-black colour.
Result- Starch is present in the exposed leaf.
Conclusion- Leaf exposed to sunlight give iodine test, proving that sunlight is necessary for photosynthesis.
