Astudent performed an experiment to demonstrate that a plant needs chlorophyll for photosynthesis. he used plants that had green leaves with white areas. after exposing the plants to sunlight, he removed a leaf from each plant and processed the leaves to remove the chlorophyll. he then tested each leaf for the presence of starch. starch was found in the area of the leaf that was green, and no starch was found in the area of the leaf that was white. he concluded that chlorophyll is necessary for photosynthesis.
which statement represents an assumption the student had to make in order to draw this conclusion?
(1) starch is synthesized from the glucose produced in the green areas of the leaf.
(2) starch is converted to chlorophyll in the green areas of the leaf.
(3) the white areas of the leaf do not have cells.
(4) the green areas of the leaf are heterotrophic.

Agenetically engineered corn plant is approved for agricultural use. the plant produces pollen that can make its own toxins. these toxins protect the corn plant against pests and no longer require the application of chemical pesticide. what is a likely impact on the farmer of growing such a variety of corn? a- the financial costs for the farmer would be lowered since less crops would be lost to pests. b-the financial costs for the farmer would be lowered since more crops would be lost to pests. c-the farmer may be held responsible for increasing chemical pollution. d-the farmer's expenses for pest control would increase due to an increase in bee population.
