(h) Two leaves are removed from a destarched plant. The upper side of one and the lower side of the other are greased with vaseline. The stalk of each leaf is dipped in water and the leaves are left in light for four hours so that photosynthesis takes place. Most of the vaseline is wiped off and the leaves are placed in a solution of potassium iodide. The leaf greased on the upper-side develops a blue colour, showing that starch has been formed by photosynthesis from -carbon dioxide, which through the leaf pores which are mainly on the under side. N colour develops in the other leaf in which vaseline blocked the pores.

(More than one answer is posible) (a) Iron is not found pure in nature. It is found in the form of iron compounds, particularly compounds of iron and oxygen. Such compounds are called ores. To get iron from its ore, layers of iron ore are placed in a blast furnace with coke and
limestone. Coke has a high proportion of carbon in it.
The mixture of iron ore, coke and limestone is heated in the blast furnace. Blasts of hot air
enter the blast furnace from the bottom and pass upwards. The carbon in the coke combines
with the oxygen in the iron ore and forms a colourless gas called carbon monoxide. The oxygen
in the iron oxide is thus removed. The other constituents of the ore combine with the limestone to
form a slag which floats at the top. The slag is removed from the furnace through a tap
The metal which remains is called pig iron. It is 91 per cent pure.
