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 ...
Page 4 of 9 Click & Learn Student Worksheet. 2. On Diagram 5, fill in the labels with the following descriptions to show the connections between the light reactions and the Calvin cycle. • carbon dioxide (CO 2) • oxygen (O 2) • G3P (sugar) • ATP • NADPH
Embedded in the thylakoid membrane are molecules of chlorophyll, a pigment (a molecule that absorbs light) through which the entire process of photosynthesis begins. Chlorophyll is responsible for the green color of plants.
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.
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. 3.
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 ...
This worksheet describes the process of chemiosmosis that occurs in the chloroplasts during photosynthesis. It includes a coloring diagram of the membrane with the electron acceptors, transport chain, and ATP synthase.
