Introduction to Photosynthesis

What is Photosynthesis and Respiration? The use of carbon dioxide, water and light energy to produce organic matter and oxygen CO 2 + H 2 O + Light Energy CH 2 O + O 2 Life on Earth respires, metabolic processes that use oxygen and nutrients to generate energy and waste products CH 2 O + O 2 CO 2 + H 2 O + Energy

To carryout photosynthesis you need pigments to help absorb light Light that reaches Earth Each pigment absorbs light of different energy antonine-education.co.uk

Demo Spinach leaves and extract of the pigment Chlorophyll a Both look green under natural white light, what will happen when we shine a black (violet) light on them?

Demo Black light Both look red, why?
