Photosynthesis Define it: Equation: sun+ 6CO H2O C6H12O O2
3
Where does photosynthesis take place?
Question: Where does photosynthesis take place?
4
Stomata (stoma) Pores in a plant’s cuticle through which water vapor and gases (CO2 & O2) are exchanged between the plant and the atmosphere. Guard Cell Oxygen (O2) Stoma Carbon Dioxide (CO2) Found on the underside of leaves
5
Mesophyll Cell of Leaf Photosynthesis occurs in these cells! Nucleus
Cell Wall Chloroplast Central Vacuole Photosynthesis occurs in these cells!
6
Chloroplast Organelle where photosynthesis takes place. Drawing:
7
Grana make up the inner membrane
Thylakoid Thylakoid Membrane Granum Thylakoid Space Grana make up the inner membrane
