They will compare a leaf that has been completely covered with black paper overnight, to one that has not. They will make the connection that green leaves change light energy into chemical energy which is then used to make food. Students should also understand that chlorophyll production is dependent on light, and without chlorophyll, food will not be produced. Students will be learning and following new lab procedures to test the leaves for presence of starch.
