Title: Photosynthesis From Sun to Cell


1
PhotosynthesisFrom Sun to Cell
2
  • All energy that fuels life comes from the sun.
  • In photosynthesis, plants capture light energy
    from the sun and change it into food.
  • Consumers would not survive without green plants.
    (starts food chains, gives us oxygen)

3
  • Plant cells have chloroplasts which contain
    pigments called chlorophyll that are green.
  • Chlorophyll captures the light energy from the
    sun.
  • Plants change the energy into food.

4
Chemicals Involved in Photosynthesis
  • C02 Carbon Dioxide
  • H2O Water
  • C6H12O6 Glucose
  • O2 Oxygen

5
Chemical Equation for Photosynthesis
  • 6CO2 6H2O ? C6 H12 O6 6O2

6
Raw Materials ( Reactants) for Photosynthesis
  • 1. Sunlight
  • 2. Water H2O
  • 3. Carbon Dioxide CO2
  • 4. Chlorophyll

7
Products of Photosynthesis
  • 1. Glucose ( C6H12O6)
  • 2. Oxygen (O2)

8
Autotrophs and Heterotrophs
  • Autotrophs organisms that make their own food (
    producers )
  • Heterotrophs organisms that eat other organisms
    to obtain energy ( consumer)
