Photosynthesis
no because they do not contain chloroplast
Animals cells do not contain chloroplast. Do you think animals cells are able to produce glucose through photosynthesis?
plants produces glucose due to photosynthesis, then glucose gives the plant energy or stores it in the leaves. Light then is used from the sun.
Describe, using scientific terms, how plants turn sunlight into energy? Make sure to refer to the chemical equation to photosynthesis and discus the reactants and products.
carbohydrates
During photosynthesis, plants make ____
first stage
During which stage of photosynthesis does water split into hydrogen and oxygen?
carbohydrates
Each-rich molecules that organisms use to carry out daily activities are ______
air factories cars
Name 3 some sources of CO2.
producers
Organisms that can make their own food are ___
chloroplast
Photosynthesis occurs in the _____
solar energy
Plants, algae, and some bacteria capture ______
dark reactions
The ___ begin when the hydrogen combines with carbon dioxide
light reactions , chlorophyll
The _____ begin when sunlight is trapped by ____
oxygen
The _____ is released from the cell
carbon dioxide and water
The chemical reactions driven by solar energy require _____
The meanings are related to chlorophyll because chlorophyll gives the leaves the color green.
The prefix chloro- means "green," and the suffix -phyll means "leaf." How are these meanings related to chlorophyll?
it tells me that during photosynthesis because of plants needing light they are put together and work together for sugar
The prefix photo- means "light," and synthesis means "to put together." How do those meanings tell you what happens during photosynthesis?
photosynthesis
The process by which a plant uses sunlight to make sugar molecules is called ______
photosynthesis
The process by which most producers make food ____
water
This energy is used to split ___ into hydrogen and oxygen
an organelle found in the leaves of green plants
What are chloroplasts and where are they found?
produce food and storing food.
What are the two main functions of chloroplasts?
energy for photosynthesis and gives color to plants
What is chlorophyll?
a process in which sunlight energy is used to make glucose
What is photosynthesis?
glucose and oxygen
What is produced in photosynthesis?
used by the plants for energy and growth
What is the glucose used for?
to release into the air for us to breath
What is the oxygen used for?
chlorophyll
What is the primary pigment found in the chloroplast?
allows plants to absorb light
What is the role of chlorophyll in photosynthesis?
sunlight CO2 water
What three things do plants need for photosynthesis to occur?
sunlight energy
What type of energy does the plant use to convert CO2 and H2O into sugar?
air through their leaves
Where does a plant get carbon dioxide it needs for photosynthesis?
chloroplast
Where does photosynthesis occur?
in the leaves
Where does the production of carbohydrates in a plant take place?
the ground
Where does the water come from?
roots
Where does the water enter the plant?
because of chlorophyll
Why doe most leaves appear green?
6CO2 + 6H2O ---> C6H12O6 + 6O2 reactants: CO2, H2O products: C6H12O6, O2
Write the chemical equation for the overall process of photosynthesis. Then explain what the equation means and identify the reactants, products, and the meaning of the several arrows.
glucose
_____ is produced, which supplies the cell with energy
