|
sunlight+6CO2+6H20 -> C6H12O6+6O2
SUNLIGHT+CARBON DIOXIDE+WATER YIELD GLUCOSE+OXYGEN |
|
|
What is the process of photosynthesis and where does it occur?
|
Plants use the energy of sunlight to convert water and carbon dioxide into oxygen and high-energy carbs. & it occurs in the chloroplasts.

what 2 stages does photosynthesis occur in & what occurs in each?
|
1. The light-dependent reactions (thlakoid)
2. The light-independent reactions (stroma) |
|

|
organisms that can make their own food from the sun's energy Ex; plants
|
|
|
What's heterotophs
