|
Is a process of food making done by plants and other autotrophic organisms |
Photosynthesis |
|
|
Typical Parts of a leaf |
1. Upper & Lower Epidemis 2. Mesophyll spongy layer 3. Vascular bundles 4. Stomata |
|
|
Protects the leaves |
Upper & Lower Epidemis |
|
|
Most # of chloroplasts that contain chlorophyl |
Mesophyll spongy layer |
|
|
Transport vessels a.) Phloem - food b.) Xylem - water (H20) |
Vascular bundles |
|
|
Throught this the CO2 & H2O Collected by the spongy layers enters on exits |
Stomata |
|
|
Absorbs light energy and converts it into chemical energy |
Chloroplast |
|
|
Chloroplast has a structure called |
Chlorophyll |
|
|
Functions of Chloroplast Structure |
1. Inner / Outer Membrane 2. Thylakoid 3. Lumen 4. Granum 5. Stroma |
|
|
Regulates what comes into / out of Chloroplast |
Inner / Outer Membrane |
|
|
Round disc that captures sunlight during photosynthesis |
Thylakoid |
|
|
Inside of thylakoid where pigment is stored |
Lumen |
|
|
Stacks of thylakoids |
Granum ( Grana) |
|
|
Liquid area of Chloroplast |
Stroma |
|
|
Is photosynthesis requires light energy. It may be " non-cylic" or "cyclic" |
Light-dependent reaction |
|
|
2 stages of Photosynthesis |
1. Light-dependent reaction 2. Light- independent reaction |
|
|
ATP |
Adenosine Triphosphate |
|
|
NADPH |
Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide Phosphate Hydrogen |
|
|
Takes place in the stroma, converts CO2 into sugar (glucose) |
Light - Independent Reaction |
