- Plants are called autotrophs.
- Leaves are the food factories of plants.
- The leaves have a green pigment called Chlorophyll II.
- Chlorophyll, Sunlight, Carbon dioxide and water are necessary to carry out the process of Photosynthesis.
- The presence of starch in leaves indicate the occurrence of Photosynthesis.
- Starch is a carbohydrate.
- Soil has certain bacteria that convert gaseous nitrogen into a usable form and release it into the soil.
- Cuscuta is a plant that does not have chlorophyll and takes ready made food from the plant on which it is climbing.
- Insect eating plants are called Insectivorous plants.
- The bacterium called Rhizobium can take atmospheric nitrogen and convert it into a soluble form.
