The Sun
|
|
photosynthesis takes place in a plant cell's _________
|
chloroplast

|
|
the formula for photosynthesis in words
|
carbon dioxide + water + energy produces glucose and oxygen.
|
|
summarize photosynthesis
|
1. starting materials are carbon dioxide and water
2. the starting materials enter the chloroplast where the Sun's energy is captured by the chlorophyll and used to change them into new products. 3. The products are glucose and oxygen |
|
summarize cellular respiration
|
1. starting materials are glucose and oxygen
2. glucose in the cytoplasm is broken down into smaller materials and now move into the mitochondria to produce energy. 3. the products are energy, carbon dioxide and water. |
|
Can you write the chemical equation for photosynthesis
|
6 H2O + 6 CO2 + light energy = C6H12O6 + 6O2
