2. Where do plants get their mass?

3. Photosynthesis Overview
Plants go through cellular respiration to create the ATP they need
BUT plants cannot eat their glucose, so they have an extra step they have to go through to CREATE glucose
Purpose of Photosynthesis: to create glucose using water, sunlight, and carbon dioxide so the plant can go through cellular respiration

4. Glucose is a Carbohydrate
Carbohydrates are made of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen
They often form a ‘ring structure’
The monomer (smaller pieces) of carbohydrates are called monosaccharides
Glucose is an example of a monosaccharide

5. Photosynthesis Equation

6. Reactants and Products Explained
CO2
Comes from the atmosphere
The carbons in CO2 will become the carbons in glucose
H20
Comes from the roots
The water replaces electrons that are lost in the process of photosynthesis
Will be turned into oxygen

7. Reactants and Products Explained
C6H12O6
A product that will go through cellular respiration to form ATP O2
A byproduct of photosynthesis
Gets released from the plant cells  becomes the oxygen we breathe

8. Where does photosynthesis occur?
Photosynthesis occurs in the chloroplasts of the plant cell
Where in the plant would the most chloroplast be found?

9. Where does photosynthesis occur?
Photosynthesis occurs in the chloroplasts of the plant cell
Where in the plant would the most chloroplast be found?
Leaves!- why? Because the absorb the most sunlight
