Science
Calvin Cycle Define
It is the second stage of photosynthesis;it is light independent;materials are rearranged into oxygen and glucose.
Photosynthesis Define
The process of using sunlight to create energy for plants, algae, bacteria, etc.
Roots
The part of plants and trees that is responsible for absorbing water.
List the reactant of photosynthesis and explain how the plants collect them?
The reactant is water and carbon dioxide. The plants collect water by having the water absorbed from the soil by roots. The plants collect carbon dioxide through the tiny holes in their leaves which is the stomata
O6 in the formula
Oxygen
Chlorophyll Define
Collects sunlight and turns the plant green.
Stomata Define
Opening in leaves where Carbon dioxide enters
What role does sunlight play in photosynthesis? Is the reaction possible without it?
Explain why or why not.
Sunlight plays a very important role in photosynthesis since it starts the entire process to begin with. without sunlight, plants would not be able to perform photosynthesis specifically the first stage of it known as the light dependent reaction. As a result, plants wouldn't be able to survive.
List the product of photosynthesis and describe what the plants do with them after the process is complete.
The product of photosynthesis is Glucose and Oxygen.
What they do to glucose-
What they do with oxygen-
The plant then releases the oxygen back into the air, and stores energy within the glucose molecules. Which they leave through the stomata.
6O2 in the formula
Glucose
Carbon Dioxide Define
A reactant is taken in by plants through the stomata.
Sunlight Define
The source of energy for all living things.
Explain what would happen to life on earth if photosynthesis just stopped being a working
process. Provide details and examples to support your explanation. At least two
Without photosynthesis, no plants, trees, flowers, etc. Would be able to survive. And if they all die, them all the animals that eat them die, which causes a chain reaction across the earth food chains. As a result, of the ruined food chains, all living things would not be able to live without the existence of these prime producers. Also, another important aspect of life that would be affected is the oxygen levels. Photosynthesis is essential for releasing oxygen into the air. Without this process, we'd run out of oxygen very quickly.
What forms glucose
carbon, hydrogen, oxygen join together to form glucose.
all organisms get their energy from what and where does energy for life come from
Both sun
Glucose Define
A product that is also known as sugar and used or absorbed by plants for growth and energy.
Chloroplast Define
Organelle in plants where photosynthesis takes place.
Describe the two stages or steps of photosynthesis.
Step 1- collect raw materials(sunlight, carbon dioxide, and water) also known as the light dependent reaction(it needs light)
Step 2- The changes of the materials into glucose/sugar and oxygen also known as the Calvin Cycle or dark reactions because it does not need light.
what is 6CO2 in the equation
Carbon dioxide
the Calvin cycle is known as the dark reaction, but it is not very dark it can happen any time of the day. but does it require light to work?
Oxygen Define
A product that is released by plants into the air since it's need by humans to survive.
Water
A reactant that is absorbed by the roots.
Write the chemical formula version of the photosynthesis equation.In word form.
Sunlight
Carbon dioxide+water------->Oxygen and Glucose
what is 6H12 in the formula
water
what chemical is not part of the photosynthesis process
a-Carbon dioxide
b-water
c-glucose
d-carbon monoxide
e-oxygen
d-carbon monoxide.
