Plant Anatomy and Photosynthesis Quiz

Mesophyll is a leaf tissue, not a primary tissue type in plants.

Photosynthesis primarily occurs in the chloroplasts of plant cells.

Chlorophyll in photosynthesis plays a key role in absorbing sunlight.

Oxygen concentration is not a factor affecting the rate of photosynthesis.

Chlorophyll is contained in the chloroplasts of plant cells.

Root hairs in a plant primarily function in absorbing water and nutrients.

The chloroplast is responsible for the synthesis of sugars during photosynthesis.

Stomata in a leaf primarily function to facilitate the exchange of gases.

G3P is the primary product of the Calvin cycle in photosynthesis.

Cambium is the plant tissue responsible for secondary growth.

The palisade mesophyll in a leaf primarily functions in photosynthesis.

Guard cells are responsible for the opening and closing of stomata.

The spongy mesophyll in a leaf mainly facilitates gas exchange.

In C3 plants, the Calvin cycle takes place in the stroma of the chloroplasts.

Xylem in plants is responsible for transporting water and minerals.

Light-dependent reactions in photosynthesis release oxygen as a byproduct.

The two main products of light-dependent reactions in photosynthesis are ATP and NADPH.

Oxygen serves as the final electron acceptor in the electron transport chain during photosynthesis.
