|
|
What is the equation for photosynthesis?
|
carbon dioxide + water = oxygen + glucose |
|
|
|
photosynthesis |
how plants make their food; involves CO2 and water |
|
|
|
How do plants use glucose? |
respiration: releases energy which allows them to convert the rest of the glucose into other useful substances making proteins: combined with nitrate ions (from soil) to make amino acids which are made into proteins such as enzymes and chlorophyll making cell walls: converted into cellulose stored in seeds: turned into lipids (fats and oils) stored as starch: in roots, stems and leaves |

|
Where is glucose made? |
in a plant's leaves |
|
|
|
diffusion |
when particles spread out from high concentration to an area low concentration |
|
|
|
In diffusion, a bigger difference in concentration means that... |
diffusion happens faster |
