Photosynthesis
This substance is created through photosynthesis and is used as energy by plants and other organisms.
glucose
This raw material is absorbed in the roots of the plant and transported through the xylem.
water.
This product of photosynthesis is used by the plant for respiration.
glucose.
These are what the ions are called that are absorbed from the soil in small quantities for the plant.
minerals
This part of the plant is responsible for carrying out photosynthesis for the plant.
leaf.
Photosynthesis requires light and this other substance in order for the process to occur.
chlorophyll
This raw material is diffused into the leaf for photosynthesis.
carbon dioxide.
This type of sugar is how the plant stores energy in the leaves and roots.
starch
This mineral is used make amino acids.
nitrate (nitrogen).
This layer of the plant is where most of the photosynthesis of the plant occurs.
palisade mesophyll layer.
These are the 2 gases that are involved in photosynthesis
carbon dioxide and oxygen
This substance is not a raw material but is what absorbs the light and is a green pigment.
chlorophyll.
This product created in photosynthesis and diffused out of the leaves into the atmosphere.
oxygen
How minerals are absorbed to the plants
through roots
This structure of the leaf is a waxy coating that prevents water loss in the plant.
Wcuticle
This substance is used to absorb light for photosynthesis.
chlorophyll
This is the source of energy for the process of photosynthesis.
sunlight.
This form of sugar is converted from glucose and is used for transporting sugar through the phloem.
sucrose.
This mineral is used by plants to make chlorophyll.
magnesium.
These structures surround the stomata and regulates the opening and closing of the stomata.
guard cells.
These are the raw materials that are reacted together to create the products.
carbon dioxide and water.
In order to investigate the process of photosynthesis in plants, this is done to a plant to REMOVE starch.
de-starching the plant or putting plant in a dark place
DJ - This type of sugar is used to create part of the plant cell's cell wall.
cellulose.
Without this mineral, the plant will turn yellow.
magnesium.
This layer of the leaf contains the stomata for the plant.
lower epidermis.
