Photosynthesis
Plants need (3) ingredient for photosynthesis
carbon dioxide
water
sunlight
Photosynthesis happens in the leaves
Plants contain chlorophyll
Takes energy from the sun
Makes plants green
Plants use water and carbon dioxide
Photosynthesis happens in two stages
Light reaction
Happens in the daytime
Makes two molecules
ATP, NADPH
Store and move energy
Dark reaction
Happen any time
Make sugar
Repeat over and over
Takes energy from the sun and turns it into fuel.
The fuel is store as molecules such as glucose.
Photosynthesis changes molecules
6CO2 + 6H2O + light energy = C6H12O6 + 6O2
Photosynthesis takes place in plants, algae and some bacteria.
