What is Photosynthesis?
The process of photosynthesis is a chemical reaction.
It is the most important chemical reaction on our planet.

What is the equation for the chemical reaction of
photosynthesis?
Six molecules of carbon dioxide react with six molecules of water to form 1 molecule of
glucose and six molecules of oxygen.

Describe Photosynthesis• The process of changing light energy to
chemical energy • Energy stored as sugar• Occurs in plants and some algae • Plants need light energy, CO2, and H2O • Takes place in the chloroplasts, using
chlorophyll, the green pigment in plants

What happens during photosynthesis?
Plants capture light energy and use that
energy to make glucose Sunlight provides the
energy needed by chlorophyll to change
molecules of carbon dioxide and water into
glucose Oxygen is also released
in this reaction

What happens during photosynthesis?
• Carbon dioxide enters the leaf through holes called stomata.
• CO2 combines with the stored energy in the chloroplasts through a chemical reaction to make glucose, (food).
• The sugar is moved through tubes called phloem in the leaf to the roots, stems and fruits of the plants.
• Some of the sugar is used right away by the plant for energy; some is stored as starch; and some is built into plant tissue.

Why is this important to us? We cannot make our
own food (glucose, energy), we must get
our food from plants. Plants are the first
step in the food chain.The oxygen released
during photosynthesis is necessary for all living
things.

Cellular What is Respiration?

What is Cellular Respiration?The release of chemical energy for use by
cells.Once the energy that was in sunlight is
changed into chemical energy by photosynthesis, an organism has to transform the chemical energy into a form that can be used by the organism.
This process is called cellular respiration.

Describe Cellular Respiration• The breakdown of glucose (food)
molecules to release energy• The opposite of photosynthesis• Happens in the mitochondria • Takes place in all living things• Is a step by step process
