Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

What type of plant tissue is responsible for photosynthesis?
Correct Answer: Parenchyma cells
  • Step 1: Understand that plants need to make their own food using sunlight.
  • Step 2: Learn that photosynthesis is the process where plants convert sunlight into energy.
  • Step 3: Identify that the main part of the plant where photosynthesis happens is the leaves.
  • Step 4: Know that within the leaves, there are special cells called parenchyma cells.
  • Step 5: Realize that parenchyma cells contain chlorophyll, which helps capture sunlight for photosynthesis.
  • Step 6: Conclude that parenchyma cells in the leaves are primarily responsible for photosynthesis.
