प्रश्न
Given alongside is the diagram of an experimental set-up:
Would you take any step before starting the experiment? Describe this step and explain its necessity.
उत्तर
Before starting the experiment, it is necessary to destarch the leaves of the plant by keeping the plant in complete darkness for 48 hours. This is because if the plant is not destarched, then the experiment will give false results because starch stored previously may be detected in the leaf placed in the beaker even if no starch is produced during the experiment.
