1. Which of the following kinds of organisms do photosynthesis? Select all that apply. plants Fungi Animals Algae all bacteria some bacteria 2. What is the overall purpose of photosynthesis? 3. On Diagram 1, fill in the labels with photosynthesis’s main inputs and outputs of matter and energy.
Use your knowledge of photosynthesis and respiration to describe and explain how the concentration of carbon dioxide in the air changes: • over a period of 24 hours
Photosynthesis is the process by which plants, some bacteria and some protistans use the energy from sunlight to produce glucose from carbon dioxide and water. This glucose can be converted into pyruvate which releases adenosine triphosphate (ATP) by cellular respiration. Oxygen is also formed.
PHOTOSYNTHESIS: • converts light energy to the chemical energy of food 6CO2 + 6H2O + light energy C6H12O6 + 6O2. Happens in all green parts of plants but leaves = major site ~ about half a million chloroplasts/mm2 of leaf surface. Color of leaf due to green pigment chlorophyll.
Which gas do plants take from the air to use in photosynthesis? Where do plants take carbon dioxide from, to use in photosynthesis? Why do plants need to take carbon dioxide from the air?
Photosynthesis is a process in which sunlight energy is used to make glucose. The site of photosynthesis is in the chloroplast – an organelle found in the leaves of green plants. The main functions of chloroplasts are to produce food (glucose) during photosynthesis, and to store food energy. Chloroplasts contain the pigment, chlorophyll ...
