Question 1 · 1 mark · Difficulty 1/3

What is the role of chlorophyll?

  1. Absorb light energy needed for photosynthesis
  2. Store glucose
  3. Produce CO₂
  4. Transport water
Show answer & explanation
✓ Answer: AAbsorb light energy needed for photosynthesis
Chlorophyll is the green pigment in chloroplasts. It absorbs red and blue light (reflects green, hence the colour) and converts light energy to chemical energy.
Question 2 · 1 mark · Difficulty 1/3

What is the equation for photosynthesis?

  1. Glucose + O₂ → CO₂ + H₂O
  2. CO₂ + H₂O → Glucose + O₂ (using light energy)
  3. Glucose → Ethanol + CO₂
  4. O₂ + H₂O → CO₂ + Glucose
Show answer & explanation
✓ Answer: BCO₂ + H₂O → Glucose + O₂ (using light energy)
6CO₂ + 6H₂O → C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂. Carbon dioxide and water are converted to glucose and oxygen using light energy absorbed by chlorophyll.

Pearson Edexcel International IGCSE Biology: Nutrition FAQ

Is Kramizo free for Pearson Edexcel International IGCSE students preparing for Biology?
Yes — completely free. Every student gets 45 questions a day on the free plan, with no card required and no trial countdown. That free quota works across every subject and every topic in our bank, so you can mix Nutrition practice with other Biology topics or even switch to a totally different Pearson Edexcel International subject without paying anything. Kramizo's optional Pro plan removes the daily cap and adds detailed progress analytics, but the free tier is the real product — used by thousands of GCSE, IGCSE and CSEC students.
Are the Nutrition questions aligned to the official Pearson Edexcel International IGCSE Biology syllabus?
Every question is written against the published Pearson Edexcel International IGCSE Biology specification, including the exact command words (state, describe, explain, calculate, evaluate, etc.), mark allocations, and difficulty tier you'd see on a real Pearson Edexcel International paper. Explanations are written in the style of official examiner mark schemes — they tell you what is being awarded marks and why distractors are wrong, not just whether you got it right. The bank is continually refined to match the latest syllabus updates from Pearson Edexcel International.
How is Nutrition typically tested on Pearson Edexcel International IGCSE Biology papers?
Nutrition appears across multiple question types on real Pearson Edexcel International IGCSE Biology papers — most commonly as multiple-choice questions in the objective section, structured short-answer questions in the main paper, and occasionally as part of an extended response. Kramizo's practice bank reflects that mix: 4-option MCQs, true/false statements, fill-in-the-blank key terms, multi-select questions, and ordering questions. Working through the bank gives you exposure to every question style examiners actually use.
