Tracing products of photosynthesis - Coggle Diagram
Tracing products of photosynthesis
Equation
Carbon dioxide + water --sunlight, chlorophyll--> oxygen + glucose
Carbon - 14 diffuses into stoma from the atmosphere
CO2(g) + H2O --chlorophyll sunlight--> O2(g) + C6H12O6 15
transported via pholem
active transport fron mesophyll --> companion cell --> phloem
source -> sink
Technologies
Radioisotopes
Same element with different # neutrons
Undergo radioactive decay
1/2 life
Role is to trace the path of elements through living organisms
Detection
Geiger counters
Nuclear imaging
Radioisotopes dark patches
X- ray film
Positron emission tomography (PET)
Radioisotope injected or ingested
Example
Carbon- 14
#
2 extra neutrons
#
incorporated into glucose
