Photosynthesis |
converts solar energy to chemical energy. solar energy+6CO2+6H2O->C6H12O6+6O2 |
|
Producers vs Consumers |
Producers: produce "food" from "raw materials" Consumers: provide food for other organisms (Humans are consumers) |
|
Pigment |
Chlorophyll Absorbs energetic rays from sun. |
|
Leave Structure |
1. Mesophyll cells: middle of leaf, Chloroplasts location. 2. Chloroplasts: cellular organelle that carries on photosynthesis. 3. Stomata: Porse that allow CO2 and O2 to enter/exit the leaf. |
|
Chloroplast Structure |
1. Thylakoids: flat "sacs" that contain pigment, sight of light reactions. 2. Grana: structure containing a "stack" of thylakoids. 3. Stroma: Liquid material that houses enzymes needed to reduce CO2 to C6H12O6. Dark reaction |

photosynthesis vs cellular respiration |
Photosynthesis is the building up of glucose. cellular respiration is breaking down of glucose. Both use electron carriers (NADP+/NAD+). |
