11. Photosynthesis in a pond weed can be studied by setting up a below experiment.

The test tube is full of water at the beginning of the experiment. As the process of
photosynthesis begins the bubbles are released leading to the collection of gas. The
bubbles of oxygen can be counted to show how fast is the rate of photosynthesis.

a. Using the apparatus shown in the figure explain how it could be used to find out if
plants photosynthesize batter in red, blue, green light.
