PPT-Photosynthesis Content: Overview of photosynthesis

The lightdependent reaction The lightindependent reaction Required practical 7  Use of chromatography to investigate the pigments isolated from leaves of different plants eg leaves from shadetolerant and shadeintolerant plants or leaves of different colours. *. Photosynthesis. – process of capturing light . . energy. from the sun to convert water & CO. 2. . . into oxygen and high energy carbohydrates . (food, ex: glucose, starch, & other sugars). Lab. 5: Photosynthesis. Lab. 5: Photosynthesis. Leaves float in water due to presence of air (air spaces) in the leaf. . How does one get them to sink?. Lab. 5: Photosynthesis. Put leaf discs under vacuum . Autotrophs. :. Organisms that are capable of producing/creating their own food. Photoautotrophs. – sunlight drives the energy production process. Chemoautotrophs. – can extract energy from an inorganic substance. Define Photosynthesis. The process by which plants manufacture (make) carbohydrates from raw materials using energy from the light.. Word and Chemical equation of Photosynthesis. 6CO. 2. + 6H. 2. O . Bryanna Wolfe. ECE 2320. October 2012. Start Here. Objective:. . When you get hungry you might decide to raid the cookie jar or ask your mom to make you a sandwich. You do this because humans and animals get energy from the foods they eat. Photosynthesis. OB48. Describe, using a word equation, how plants make their own food through photosynthesis.  . OB49. Show that starch is produced by a photosynthesising plant.  . OB50. Investigate the growth response of plants to . Unit 3 . Think back to Energy Transfer…. Living things use energy for . Growth. Repair. Reproduction. Metabolism. The collection of reactions that occur in a cell . Metabolism. Involves either:. . Lauren . Kendle. Winter Ecology. Spring 2012. Background Information. An analysis of 60 species indicated that there were photosynthetic processes in the . bark. Aspen Trees had the highest level of bark chlorophyll . November 17, 2009. A ___________ is a group of different species that live together in one area.. Community. Population. Organism. Ecosystem. Biome. O. 2 . represents. Glucose. Energy. Carbon dioxide. Ms. . Albu. B Block. Photosynthesis Lab Findings. We tested the photosynthetic rate of leaf discs of spinach (control) to arugula (experimental) under a 100 watt lamp. Spinach had a higher rate of photosynthesis. And Respiration of Plants. By: Annette Miles. Photosynthesis is a process by which plants turn energy from the ____ into _______ or _______________. . sun. glucose. carbohydrates.
