1. Photosynthesis

2. What would these make/produce?

YUM!!!
What would these make/produce?

3. Ingredients What you make Reactants Products
Reactants are like the ingredients.
They are the things you need to start the reaction
Products are what you produce or end up with

6. Diffusion is the mechanism that the gases enter and exit the leaf.
Stoma or Stomata
Kind of like the lungs of a leaf
Gas exchange
Water Vapor leaves
Opposite of us!
Carbon Dioxide comes in
Oxygen leaves
Diffusion is the mechanism that the gases enter and exit the leaf.

7. Mainly located on bottom of leaf.
Stoma or Stomata
Mainly located on bottom of leaf.

8. Long tubes of dead cells. Looks like a straw.
Vascular Tissue
The veins of the leaf
Xylem
Carries water up the plant (from the roots). Enters Root hairs through Osmosis.
Long tubes of dead cells. Looks like a straw.

9. -Water vapor escapes through Stomata.
Transpiration
 is essentially evaporation of water from plant leaves. (Plant Sweat)
Fun Fact: Studies have revealed that about 10 percent of the moisture found in the atmosphere is released by plants through transpiration
-Water vapor escapes through Stomata.
-This creates a suction pressure in the plant which pulls water from the roots up the xylem to the leaves.

10. Carries sugar (Sucrose) down the plant (from the leaves)

11. Sunlight is captured by chlorophyll
Chlorophyll is a pigment that is made of the element Magnesium and reflects green light.
Sunlight is captured by chlorophyll
Radiant energy for the reaction
Photosynthesis takes place in the chloroplast

14. Stored by the plant in the form of Starch
Product:
Glucose (chemical energy)
Carbohydrate
Monosaccharide
Can be used by the plant for energy OR
Polysaccharide
Stored by the plant in the form of Starch

15. Since plants make this glucose (food) they are called Producers or Autotrophs
