PPT-Photosynthesis

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 . 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 . By . Ms. Megan Black. Photosynthesis. Photosynthesis is the process of making food by plants. The essential ingredients in making this food are sunlight, the chlorophyll that is present in green plants, water and carbon dioxide in the air. . 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 . Warm up (11-23-15). Explain what you know about plants.. Try to be specific and use scientific terms if possible.. Outline. Objectives. Plant Background Info. Objectives. To gain background information about plants and how they colonized land. 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.. 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:. .

Photosynthesis. . converts light energy from the sun into chemical energy in the form of organic compounds through a series of reactions known as . biochemical pathways. . . Autotrophs. . use energy from sunlight or from chemical bonds in inorganic substances to make organic compounds. . 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. Photosynthesis. - a process used by plants and other autotrophs to convert the light energy captured from the sun into chemical energy that can be used to fuel the organism’s activities. . *It is the way plants make food! . 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 . The light-dependent reaction. The light-independent reaction. Required practical 7: . Use of chromatography to investigate the pigments isolated from leaves of different plants, . eg. , leaves from shade-tolerant and shade-intolerant plants or leaves of different colours.. 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.
