This document is a worksheet for a chapter on nutrition in plants. It contains objective type questions about pigments, tissues, and processes involved in plant nutrition. These include questions about chlorophyll, rhizobium bacteria, xylem tissue, the fungal part of lichens, and photosynthesis. It also has matching questions connecting terms like parasites, insectivorous plants, saprophytes, and rhizobium bacteria. The worksheet sections ask students to differentiate parasites from saprophytes, describe stomata and their importance, write the chemical reaction for photosynthesis, and define terms like nutrition, insectivores, and symbiosis. It also asks about the raw materials and sources for photosynthesis.
