Using your knowledge of photosynthesis, which answer choice explains what most likely will happen to those leaves once the plant is put back in the sun without the construction paper circles attached? (1 point) Responses The plant will die because the damage caused by the construction paper circles prohibited photosynthesis to occur at all. The plant will die because the damage caused by the construction paper circles prohibited photosynthesis to occur at all. The rest of the plant will develop yellow or white circles just like the leaves that had the construction paper circles on them and photosynthesis will not occur in those areas even though the sunligh energy is being absorbed by the chlorophyll contained in the chloroplasts. The rest of the plant will develop yellow or white circles just like the leaves that had the construction paper circles on them and photosynthesis will not occur in those areas even though the sunligh energy is being absorbed by the chlorophyll contained in the chloroplasts. Those leaves will fall off and the rest of the plant will continue to grow and perform photosynthesis. Those leaves will fall off and the rest of the plant will continue to grow and perform photosynthesis. Those areas that were covered by the paper circles will now be able to absorb the sunlight energy into the chlorophyll contained in the chloroplasts, photosynthesis will occur in those areas, and the green color will eventually return. Those areas that were covered by the paper circles will now be able to absorb the sunlight energy into the chlorophyll contained in the chloroplasts, photosynthesis will occur in those areas, and the green color will eventually return.

Those areas that were covered by the paper circles will now be able to absorb the sunlight energy into the chlorophyll contained in the chloroplasts, photosynthesis will occur in those areas, and the green color will eventually return.

Answer 1

The correct answer is: Those areas that were covered by the paper circles will now be able to absorb the sunlight energy into the chlorophyll contained in the chloroplasts, photosynthesis will occur in those areas, and the green color will eventually return.

Answer 2

The correct answer is: The rest of the plant will develop yellow or white circles just like the leaves that had the construction paper circles on them and photosynthesis will not occur in those areas even though the sunlight energy is being absorbed by the chlorophyll contained in the chloroplasts.

Answer 3

Based on the knowledge of photosynthesis, the most likely answer choice is: "Those areas that were covered by the paper circles will now be able to absorb the sunlight energy into the chlorophyll contained in the chloroplasts, photosynthesis will occur in those areas, and the green color will eventually return."

To arrive at this answer, we need to understand the process of photosynthesis. Photosynthesis is the process by which green plants, algae, and some bacteria convert sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide into glucose (a type of sugar) and oxygen. This process takes place in specialized structures called chloroplasts, which contain a pigment called chlorophyll that absorbs sunlight.

When the leaves were covered by construction paper circles, they were not exposed to sunlight. As a result, photosynthesis could not occur in those areas. The absence of photosynthesis would lead to a lack of glucose production, which is essential for the plant's survival and growth.

Once the plant is put back in the sun without the construction paper circles attached, the previously covered areas will be exposed to sunlight again. This means that the chlorophyll contained in the chloroplasts will be able to absorb the sunlight energy necessary for photosynthesis. Consequently, photosynthesis will resume in those areas, resulting in the production of glucose and the restoration of the green color in those leaves.

Therefore, the most likely outcome is that the areas previously covered by the paper circles will recover and resume photosynthesis, eventually returning to their original green color.
