1
Photosynthesis: Life from Light and Air
2
Plants are energy producers
Like animals, plants need energy to live Unlike animals, plants don’t need to eat food to make that energy _____________________________
3
How do plants make energy & food?
Plants use the energy from the sun _____________________________ glucose, sucrose, cellulose, starch, & more sun ATP sugars
4
Building plants from sunlight & air
Photosynthesis 2 separate processes _______________________ collect sun energy use it to make ATP take the ATP energy collect CO2 from air & H2O from ground use all to build sugars ATP H2O + CO2 sugars carbon dioxide CO2 water H2O sugars C6H12O6 +
5
Using light & air to grow plants
______________________________________ ______________________ (ATP) = used to build the sugar glucose + oxygen carbon dioxide sun energy + water + 6CO2 6H2O C6H12O6 6O2 sun energy +
6
What do plants need to grow?
The “factory” for making energy & sugars __________________ Fuels The Helpers Make ATP! Make sugar! I can do it all… And no one even notices! sun CO2 ATP sugars enzymes H2O
7
Photosynthesis ATP ADP _______ _______ _______ _______ _______ _______
sun Photosynthesis _______ _______ _______ ADP ATP _______ _______ _______ used immediately to synthesize sugars H2O sugar CO2
8
Chloroplasts are only in plants
animal cells plant cells

_____________ _____________ _____________ _____________
Chloroplasts _____________ _____________ Leaf sun Leaves CO2 Chloroplasts in cell Chloroplast _______________ Chloroplasts contain Chlorophyll _____________ _____________
10
So what does a plant need?
Bring In ___________ Let Out Move Around leaves shoot roots 6CO2 6H2O C6H12O6 6O2 light energy +
11
Leaf Structure _______________________ ___________ ____________
12
Transpiration xylem (water) stomate guard cells ____________ O2 H C
so it gets to leaves from roots O2 H C
13
Transpiration Water evaporates from the stomates in the leaves
pulls water up from roots water molecules stick to each other more water is pulled up tree from ground
14
Function of Leaf Structures
Cuticle ________________________________________ Epidermis Palisades layer Spongy layer
15
Stomates & Guard Cells guard cell stomate
__________________________________ ______________________________ gets to leaves for photosynthesis guard cell stomate
16
Guard cells & Homeostasis
keeping the internal environment of the plant balanced ________________________
17
Xylem ______________________
18
Phloem: food-conducting cells
____________________________________________________________ __________________
19
glucose + oxygen carbon + water + energy
How are they connected? ________________ glucose + oxygen carbon + water + energy dioxide C6H12O6 6O2 6CO2 6H2O ATP + _________________ So, in effect, photosynthesis is respiration run backwards powered by light. Cellular Respiration oxidize C6H12O6 CO2 & produce H2O fall of electrons downhill to O2 exergonic Photosynthesis reduce CO2 C6H12O6 & produce O2 boost electrons uphill by splitting H2O endergonic 6CO2 6H2O C6H12O6 6O2 light energy + glucose + oxygen carbon dioxide sun + water +

Energy cycle ATP Cellular Respiration Cellular Respiration CO2 O2 H2O
capture light energy Cellular Respiration synthesis ____________________ H2O CO2 __________ __________ _______ O2 _______ _______ _______ ____________________ digestion Cellular Respiration ATP release chemical energy
22
The poetic perspective
All of the solid material of every plant was built out of thin air All of the solid material of every animal was built from plant material sun air Then all the cats, dogs, mice, people & elephants… are really strands of air woven together by sunlight!
