فوٹوٹروپک گھماؤ ______ کی ناہموار تقسیم کا نتیجہ ہے؟

Check answer and explanation

Answer: Auxin

Explanation Auxin accumulates on the shaded side of the plant, promoting cell elongation and causing phototropic curvature . This allows the plant to bend toward the light source for optimal photosynthesis.

67. The process of photosynthesis produces glucose and ______?

عملِ فوٹوسنتھیسز سے گلوکوز اور ______ پیدا ہوتے ہیں؟

Check answer and explanation

Answer: Oxygen

Explanation Photosynthesis is the process by which green plants, algae, and some bacteria convert sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide into food (glucose).
