(a) False
Correct Statement: Dark reaction of photosynthesis is independent of light and occurs simultaneously with light reaction.
(b) True
(c) False
Correct Statement: Starch produced in a leaf is stored temporarily in the leaf until the process of photosynthesis. At night it is converted back into soluble sugar and translocated to different part of the body either for the utilization or for the storage.
(d) True
(e) False
Correct Statement: Green plants are producers.
(f) False
Correct Statement: Respiration results in loss of dry weight of the plants.
(g) False
Correct Statement: Photosynthesis stops at a temperature of above 40oC.
(h) True
(i) True
(j) True
