Answer 2

In the experiment the potted plant was kept in the darkness for a day :

This is to :

deactivate chloroplast

destarched leaves

activate chloroplast

prepare leaves for photosynthesis

The correct answer will be deactivate chloroplast .

to destsrch leaves we need to boil the leaves so that starch may die.

To activate chloroplast we need leaf to perform photosynthesis it is impossible if we detach the leaf from the plant .

To prepare leaf for photosynthesis - this can only happen if the plant will get right pressure of water, right osmetic pressure , sunlight to perform photosynthesis .

So the correct answer is a deactivate chloroplast if we will keep a leaf in a dark room the chloroplast will die .
