1. Process of Photosynthesis

2. The Reaction

3. What is the photosynthesis reaction?
Where do the reactants come from and where do the products end up?
Reactants
Carbon Dioxide
Water
Products
Glucose
Oxygen

4. Plant Anatomy Gases in? Gases out? Water from the roots?
Glucose from the leaves?

5. Where in the cell does the process take place?

6. Chloroplasts are the sites of the photosynthesis reaction

7. Plant leaves have many types of cells, but only the cells with chloroplasts can do photosynthesis.

8. Leaf Structure

9. Photosynthesis takes place in 2 stages
Light Reaction
Light Independent Reaction (Calvin Cycle)

10. Analyze the diagram. Light Reaction: Reactants: Products:
Light Independent Reaction/Calvin Cycle

11. Light Reaction More than molecules in and out

13. Light reaction and light independent reaction Summary
Uses light to split water!
Makes ATP (will be used as the energy source to build glucose)
Makes oxygen (waste)

14. Revise part of your model
Where does the photosynthesis occur?
Where does the light reaction occur?
Be as specific as you can be.
Where does water come from and how is it used?
Where does the oxygen come from?
What is the role of sunlight in the process of photosynthesis?
