True or false:

Question

During photosynthesis, oxygen is released as a byproduct.

Oxygen is the gas used by plants as a reactant during photosynthesis.

Oxygen is the byproduct of photosynthesis that is essential for human survival.

Chlorophyll absorbs light energy from the sun.

In photosynthesis, carbon dioxide and water are converted into oxygen.

The process of photosynthesis takes place in the mitochondria of cells.

The primary purpose of photosynthesis is to produce glucose.

Answer 1

Let's evaluate each statement:

1. True: During photosynthesis, oxygen is released as a byproduct.

2. False: Oxygen is not used as a reactant during photosynthesis; rather, carbon dioxide and water are the primary reactants, and oxygen is a product.

3. True: Oxygen is the byproduct of photosynthesis that is essential for human survival.

4. True: Chlorophyll absorbs light energy from the sun.

5. False: In photosynthesis, carbon dioxide and water are converted into glucose and oxygen, not just oxygen.

6. False: The process of photosynthesis takes place in the chloroplasts of cells, not the mitochondria.

7. True: The primary purpose of photosynthesis is to produce glucose, which plants use as an energy source.

So the answers are:

1. True
2. False
3. True
4. True
5. False
6. False
7. True
