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 ...
CHAPTER 10-Photosynthesis. • Life on Earth is solar powered. • Photosynthesis nourishes almost all the living world directly or indirectly. All organisms use organic compounds for energy and for carbon skeletons. Organisms obtain organic compounds by one of two major modes: autotrophic or heterotrophic.
Photosynthesis Animation Student Worksheet. INTRODUCTION. This worksheet complements the animation series Photosynthesis. PROCEDURE. 1. This animation series contains seven parts. Read the questions below for each part before watching it. 2. After watching each part, answer the questions in the spaces provided.
What structure is used to transport organic molecules from the leaf to other other parts of the plant? Chloroplasts have a green pigment (chlorophyll) that reflects green, making plants green. Why are leaves green?
23 sty 2019 · Photosynthesis converts light energy from the sun into chemical energy stored in organic molecules, which are used to build the cells of many producers and ultimately fuel ecosystems. After providing an overview of photosynthesis, these animations zoom inside the cells of a leaf and into a chloroplast to see where and how the reactions of ...
Here's a brief overview of the steps involved in photosynthesis to help you quickly grasp how the process works. Light is absorbed by chlorophyll, a ferment contained in leaves. Light energy is converted into chemical energy: light energy is used to split a water molecule. The reaction releases chemical energy.
