Projects for : Formative Assesment
1. Visit a garden preferably in the month of August or September and observe the trees. Try to
find different kinds of fungi growing on the dead branches or bark of trees. Carefully collect these
fungi and bring them to school. With the help of your teacher, try to find their names.
2. Collect pictures of plants such as saprophyte, symbionts, insectivorous plants. P a s t e t h e s e
pictures on a chart and label them.
3. Green plants not only give food but also provide oxygen and remove carbon d i o x i d e .
Think about the importance of green plants. Next time when you see someone destroying a green plant,
explain to him/her the importance of green plants.
4 Do these activities and write a project report-
a. To test the presence of starch in a leaf.Take a green leaf from a healthy plant. Boil the leaf for approximately 5 minutes so that it becomes soft.
Now, place this boiled leaf in a test tube containing alcohol. Place the test tube containing alcohol with
the leaf in the beaker containing warm water and remove the chlorophyll present in the leaf to make it
colourless. Wash the leaf in warm water to remove any alcohol adhering to it. Place the bleached leaf on
a white tile and add a little iodine to it. You will observe that some parts of the leaf have turned blue-black.
The part turning blue-biack contains starch in it as starch changes its color to blue-black on addition of
iodine to it.
b. To show that carbon dioxide is necessary for photosynthesis.Take a healthy potted plant. Put some potassium hydroxide in a conical flask. Place the flask in such a
way, with the help of a stand, that a leaf can be easily inserted into it, still being attached to the plant.
Seal the flask using a cork. Place this setup in sunlight for a few hours. The potassium hydroxide
present in the flask removes carbon dioxide from the air present in the jar. Remove the leaf that was
inserted in the conical flask and subject it to starch test as in activity 3. It will be observed that the leaf
does not show the presence of starch. Hence, it is clear that carbon dioxide is necessary for the process
of photosynthesis.

PROJECTS
I. The aim of this project is to find out how much water evaporates from the plants depending on the type of the plant and environmental conditions.
MATERIALS REQUIRED: Plastic bags of different sizes, tape, test tube or glass to collect water.
• Carefully put the plastic bags over a few leaves or small branch (if you are comparing different plants make sure that the size of the leaves and their amount in the bag is the same).
