Question
The leaves of a plant were covered with aluminium foil, how would it affect the physiology of the plant?
Solution
No photosynthesis will occur so no glucose will be made. Also no respiration will take place as no Oxygen will be taken in. No transpiration will occur so there would be no upward movement of water or minerals from the soil as there will be no transpirational pull. Temperature regulation of leaf surface will be affected.
