PPT-Photosynthesis Photosynthesis

Happens in the CHLOROPLAST Using the chemical Chloroplast Only need to learn terms Thylakoid Granum Thylakoid Little sacklike things Hold the chlorophyll Like little solar panels The stacks of Thylakoids are Granumgrana. *. 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. Energy . and Life. Plants and some other types of organisms are able to use light energy from the sun to produce food.. Autotrophs. : organisms such as plants, which make their own food. Heterotrophs. Textbook pages 97 – 103. Photosynthesis . process used by plants using light energy to create sugar (glucose, C. 6. H. 12. O. 6. ) from carbon dioxide (CO. 2. ) and water (H. 2. O). oxygen gas (. O. 1. ENERGY AND LIFE. OBJECTIVES: 8.1. Explain where plants get the energy they need to produce food.. Describe the role of ATP (adenosine . triphosphate. ) in cellular activities.. 2. Energy is the ability to do work.. Why Study Photosynthesis?. *All food webs start with photosynthesis!*. Photosynthesis is arguably the most important biological process on earth because of two key chemical reactions. Liberating oxygen:. ENERGY IN THE CELL. ENERGY IN THE CELL. ENERGY CONVERSIONS. PHOTOSYNTHESIS. CELLULAR RESPIRATION. ATP for cell usage. Is about. Starting with. Transformed by. Converted to. Plants & photosynthesis. Photosynthesis. . Process. = plant cells use light energy to rearrange water and carbon dioxide molecules into sugar . molecules. Oxygen is a by-product (leftover, waste product). Energy now stored in the sugar. Photosynthesis . process used by plants using light energy to create sugar (glucose, C. 6. H. 12. O. 6. ) from carbon dioxide (CO. 2. ) and water (H. 2. O). oxygen gas (. O. 2. ) is produced as a waste product and the light energy used is stored as chemical energy. What is the . ideal combination of factors . for the . maximum . rate of photosynthesis? . enough light. . enough carbon dioxide. . ideal temperature . (not too hot or cold). How is the rate affected if one of these factors is . Refer to . pg. . 83-92 . in . Holtzclaw. , . Ch. 10 in Campbell and media resources. . Refer . to . pg. . 297. -299 . in . Holtzclaw. , Lab . Inv. 5 . in . Lab Manual. Try This!. Where does the biomass of a tree primarily come from?. Photosynthesis. Photosynthesis. is the process by which plants, some . bacteria use . the energy from sunlight to produce sugar and starches ……which . cellular respiration. converts into . ATP. Autotrophs. – organisms use can make their own food. Some. autotrophs capture light energy from the sun in the process of photosynthesis. Heterotrophs. – obtain energy from the foods they consume.
