1 PHOTOSYNTHESIS

2 Photosynthesis Define it: Equation: sun+ 6CO H2O  C6H12O O2

3 Where does photosynthesis take place?
Question: Where does photosynthesis take place?

4 Stomata (stoma) Pores in a plant’s cuticle through which water vapor and gases (CO2 & O2) are exchanged between the plant and the atmosphere. Guard Cell Oxygen (O2) Stoma Carbon Dioxide (CO2) Found on the underside of leaves

5 Mesophyll Cell of Leaf Photosynthesis occurs in these cells! Nucleus
Cell Wall Chloroplast Central Vacuole Photosynthesis occurs in these cells!

6 Chloroplast Organelle where photosynthesis takes place. Drawing:

7 Grana make up the inner membrane
Thylakoid Thylakoid Membrane Granum Thylakoid Space Grana make up the inner membrane

8 Question: Why are plants green?

9 What factors affecting the rate of photosynthesis?

10 Why do cells use sunlight for energy?
Question: Why do cells use sunlight for energy?

11 Concept Map A concept map presents the relationships among a set of connected concepts and ideas. It is a tangible way to display how your mind  "sees" a particular topic.

12 Create your own using… Chloroplast Thylakoid Stroma Granum Grana
Glucose Sun Water CO2 Oxygen Stoma Stomata Roots Leaf Guard Cells Photosynthesis Equation Mesophyll Cell Photosynthesis

13 Day 3 of Osmosis Lab Be EXTREMELY careful with your egg!!!

14 Closure Why do leaves change color in the fall?
