PPT-Products of photosynthesis

Do now activity What are the limiting factors of photosynthesis Explain the effect that an increase in temperature can have on the rate of photosynthesis Describe a simple experiment that can be conducted to investigate the effect of light intensity on the rate of photosynthesis. *. Photosynthesis. – process of capturing light . . energy. from the sun to convert water & CO. 2. . . into oxygen and high energy carbohydrates . (food, ex: glucose, starch, & other sugars). Autotrophs. :. Organisms that are capable of producing/creating their own food. Photoautotrophs. – sunlight drives the energy production process. Chemoautotrophs. – can extract energy from an inorganic substance. Define Photosynthesis. The process by which plants manufacture (make) carbohydrates from raw materials using energy from the light.. Word and Chemical equation of Photosynthesis. 6CO. 2. + 6H. 2. O . Warm up (11-23-15). Explain what you know about plants.. Try to be specific and use scientific terms if possible.. Outline.

Photosynthesis . process used by plants using light energy to create sugar (glucose, C. 6. H. 12. O. 6. ) from carbon dioxide (CO. 2. ) and water (H. 2. O). oxygen gas (. O. Unit 3 . Think back to Energy Transfer…. Living things use energy for . Growth. Repair. Reproduction. Metabolism. The collection of reactions that occur in a cell . Metabolism. Involves either:. . Lauren . Kendle. Winter Ecology. Spring 2012. Background Information. An analysis of 60 species indicated that there were photosynthetic processes in the . bark. Aspen Trees had the highest level of bark chlorophyll . Why Study Photosynthesis?. *All food webs start with photosynthesis!*. Photosynthesis is arguably the most important biological process on earth because of two key chemical reactions. Liberating oxygen:. ENERGY IN THE CELL. ENERGY IN THE CELL. ENERGY CONVERSIONS. PHOTOSYNTHESIS. CELLULAR RESPIRATION. ATP for cell usage. Is about. Starting with. Transformed by. Converted to. Plants & photosynthesis. Photosynthesis. . Process. = plant cells use light energy to rearrange water and carbon dioxide molecules into sugar . molecules. Oxygen is a by-product (leftover, waste product). Energy now stored in the sugar. Ms. . Albu. B Block. Photosynthesis Lab Findings. We tested the photosynthetic rate of leaf discs of spinach (control) to arugula (experimental) under a 100 watt lamp. Spinach had a higher rate of photosynthesis. What is the . ideal combination of factors . for the . maximum . rate of photosynthesis? . enough light. . enough carbon dioxide. . ideal temperature .
