Objective:

To determine that green leaves can make their own food by photosynthesis:

Experiment:

1. Take a plant with leafs having partial chlorophyll (for example: croton plant).

2. First place the plant in a dark room for 24 hours.

3. Then take out the plant the next day from the dark room and place it under the sun for about 30 minutes.

4. Take a leaf from the croton plant and then perform the starch test.

Observation:

  • we will be able to observe that only the green parts of the leaf turned blue black on application of iodine.

  • However the coloured parts of the leaf (without any chlorophyll) did not show blue black colour.

Conclusion:

  • This proves that chlorophyll containing leaves can prepare their own food by photosynthesis.

  • The non-chlorophyll parts of the leaf obtain their food from the manufacturing centres of the leaf.

Hope It Helps.
