Evidence that might have led the scientist to conclude that the plant does not photosynthesize could include:
1. The plant does not contain chloroplasts, which are necessary for photosynthesis.
2. The plant does not produce oxygen, which is a byproduct of photosynthesis.
3. The plant does not contain the necessary enzymes for photosynthesis.
4. The plant does not absorb light energy, which is necessary for photosynthesis.
5. The plant does not produce glucose, which is a product of photosynthesis.
