Question

Which of these statements about photosynthesis is not correct?

• A. Foliar nature
• B. Floral nature
• C. Clinging nature
• D. Stem nature

Answer 1

The correct option is B

Floral nature

The overall reaction of photosynthesis is as follows:

$6C{O}_2+12H_{2}O\stackrel{Light}{\to }{C}_6{H}_{12}{O}_6+6H_{2}O+6O_2$

The process of photosynthesis can be divided into two parts: light reactions and dark reactions. Both of them require the presence of light. However, the light reactions are directly dependent on light, whereas the dark reactions depend on the products of the light reactions. Hence, the dark reactions are indirectly dependent on light.
