Let’s solve this step by step.
We are matching causes to effects based on what we know about leaves and sunlight.
First, look at the top row:
- Cause: “Lots of sunlight” → What happens when a leaf gets lots of sunlight? It stays green because it can make food (photosynthesis). So the effect should be “Green Leaf”.
Second row:
- Effect: “yellow leaf” → What causes a leaf to turn yellow? When there is less sunlight (like in fall), the green color fades and yellow shows up. So the cause must be “Less Sunlight”.
Third row:
- Cause: “Carbon dioxide” + arrow pointing to a leaf → During photosynthesis, plants take in carbon dioxide and release oxygen. So the effect here is “Oxygen”.
Now let’s match them correctly:
Row 1:
Cause: Lots of sunlight → Effect: Green Leaf
Row 2:
Cause: Less Sunlight → Effect: yellow leaf
Row 3:
Cause: Carbon dioxide → Effect: Oxygen
Final Answer:
Top right box: Green Leaf
Middle left box: Less Sunlight
Bottom right box: Oxygen
