Assertion: Plants photosynthesise during the day, whereas they respire at night.
Reason: Photosynthesis can occur in the presence of sunlight whereas respiration cannot.

What conclusions can be drawn from the Moll’s half leaf experiment [the given diagram shows the schematic representation of the experiment]?
What can be said after observing the results of the experiment?
| I: | Negative starch test by the leaf portion present inside the bottle indicates CO 2 is necessary for this process. |
| II: | Negative test of starch, which is also shown by the portion of the leaf present in between the split of the split cork is due to the lack of CO 2 and light, thus indicating that both of them are essential requirements. |
| 1. | Only I | 2. | Only II |
| 3. | Both I and II | 4. | None |
C. B. van Niel proved that:
| 1. | Plants produce glucose when they grow. |
| 2. | Blue and red light are effective for photosynthesis. |
| 3. | It is only the green parts of the plants that could release oxygen. |
| 4. | Hydrogen from a suitable oxidizable compound reduces carbon dioxide to carbohydrates. |

It can be correctly said about the relation between the absorption spectra of various pigments and the action spectrum of photosynthesis that:
| 1. | There is a complete one to one overlap between the absorption spectrum of chlorophyll a and the action spectrum of photosynthesis. |
| 2. | There is a complete one to one overlap between the absorption spectrum of chlorophyll b and the action spectrum of photosynthesis. |
| 3. | The absorption spectrum of chlorophyll a is wider than the action spectrum of photosynthesis. |
| 4. | The absorption spectrum of chlorophyll a is narrower than the action spectrum of photosynthesis. |
