Question

State if the following statements are true or false. Rewrite the false statements correctly.

The process of photosynthesis takes place during night.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is B False

Photosynthesis- The process by which plants use carbon dioxide and water to form sugar (carbohydrate) and oxygen in the presence of sunlight only.

$\mathrm{Carbon}\mathrm{dioxide}\left(\mathrm{g}\right)+\mathrm{Water}\left(\mathrm{l}\right)\stackrel{\mathrm{sunlight}}{\to }\mathrm{Glucose}\left(\mathrm{s}\right)+\mathrm{Oxygen}\left(\mathrm{g}\right)$

The sunlight provides energy and activates the chlorophyll necessary for photosynthesis.

Plants can perform photosynthesis at night only if they are provided with the artificial light of the corresponding wavelengths.

Correct statement - The process of photosynthesis takes place during the day only.

Therefore, the given statement is false.
