Question
Science Question on Photosynthesis — Food Making Process In Plants
Assertion (A): Green plants trap only 1% of the energy of sunlight that falls on their leaves. Reason (R): All green plants are the producers in a food chain.
A
Both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are true, and Reason (R) is the correct explanation of Assertion (A).
B
Both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are true, but Reason (R) is not the correct explanation of Assertion (A).
C
Assertion (A) is true, but Reason (R) is false.
D
Assertion (A) is false, but Reason (R) is true.
Answer
Both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are true, but Reason (R) is not the correct explanation of Assertion (A).
Explanation
Solution
Green plants trap 1% solar energy for photosynthesis and are primary producers. However, Reason (R) does not directly explain Assertion (A), so both are true but unrelated.
