Photosynthesis OB48 Describe, using a word equation, how plants make their own food through photosynthesis   OB49 Show that starch is produced by a photosynthesising plant OB50 Investigate the growth response of plants to gravity (geotropism) and light (phototropism)

Photosynthesis is the way in which plants make food

Plants take in carbon dioxide from the air and water from the ground. Plant cells then combine this with chlorophyll (which is already in the cells) and sunlight to produce food in the form of glucose. Oxygen is produced as a by-product and is released into the atmosphere.

Word equation???

A tropism is the response of a plant to a stimulus

Geotropism is the response of a plant to gravity

Phototropism is the response of a plant to light

To show that starch is produced by a photosynthesising plant

Place a plant in the dark for a few days so that all the starch moves out of the leaves. Place aluminium foil over one of the leaves and put the plant in strong sunlight for a day. Put the leaves in boiling water for a minute to kill and soften them. Soak the leaves in methylated spirits for a few minutes to remove the chlorophyll (this also makes them brittle). Dip the leaves in boiling water again rinse and soften them. Test for starch by putting drops of iodine on the leaves.

Carbon Dioxide Source?: Passes into the leaves through the stomata

Water Source?: Xylem carries water from the roots to the leaves

Light Source?: Absorbed by the leaves

Chlorophyll Source?: Absorbs light and allows photosynthesis to take place

Glucose May be used: To provide energy in respiration Form starch (storage) Form cellulose

Oxygen May be used to: For respiration to provide energy in leaf Released into the atmosphere
