1. Photosynthesis! And turns it into
How a plant takes radiant energy from the sun
Chemical Energy in the form of glucose

2. What is needed?
Sunlight!
Water
Carbon Dioxide

3. What do I get?
Glucose
Oxygen

4. Put it all Together

5. Why do I need 6 Carbon Dioxides and 6 Waters?
I need 12 hydrogens and 6 carbons!

6. Why am I doing it? To get out the glucose To get out ATP
To build my cell, store food, get energy
To get out ATP
The battery pack of the cell

7. What is ATP?
Adenosine Triphosphate

8. ATP is like a wallet full of money

9. When I break off the last phosphate, I get energy out
It turns into ADP

10. ADP is like a wallet with no money

11. When I eat food, the last phosphate is added back on and I have a full wallet again

12. Two steps Light Dependent Reaction Light Independent Reaction
AKA Dark Reaction
AKA Calvin Cycle

13. Light Dependent Happens in thylakoid
Radiant Energy from the sun is collected by chlorophyll
Used to break water into hydrogen and oxygen
Oxygen leaves the plant
ATP is made
NADPH is made
This all leaves the thylakoid and moves to the stroma

14. Light Indenpendent Happens in stroma The cell sucks in CO2
The chloroplast uses the Hydrogen (from water), the CO2, the ATP and the NADPH to make a glucose
ATP turns to ADP
NADPH turns to NADP+
I can use these again!

16. Why is the light independent called the light independent reaction?

17. How does the cell get in the things that it needs for photosynthesis?
