A B C D
4
a)Organ b)Tissue c)System The LEAF is an example of a/an The leaf is a collection of tissues whose main purpose is to carry out or support the process of photosynthesis. There are special organelles responsible for this. What are the organelles called? CHLOROPLASTS

**Anything this colour, do NOT copy. It’s just for review or interest! Click on the word Photosynthesis, above, and go to “Illuminating Photosynthesis.” Explore the interactive video.
6
PHOTOSYNTHESIS is defined as the synthesis of chemical compounds with the aid of radiant energy and especially light. –Photo means light –Synthesis means to make It is a chemical reaction performed during the day by producers only.
7
It takes place in an organelle unique to plants, called the CHLOROPLAST.
8
Nature of light Wavelength Electromagnetic spectrum 380 to 750 nm (visible light) photon
9
Chlorophyll a & b accessory pigments –E.g.: carotenoids & xanthophylls Photopigments
11
Interactions of light with chloroplast
12
Can you identify the different organelles in the cell below?
13
Chloroplasts contain the green pigment, CHLOROPHYLL. The chlorophyll, found in the thylakoids of the chloroplast, absorbs light energy and stores it as chemical energy in glucose.
14
CELLULAR RESPIRATION is a reaction performed both day and night by both producers and consumers It is the process by which plants and animals convert the stored energy in their food (glucose) to usable energy to carry out cellular functions.
15
Cellular Respiration begins in the cytoplasm but ends in the mitochondria What is the word equation for cellular respiration?
16
Gas Production Photosynthesis producesO 2(g) Cellular respiration producesCO 2(g) Photosynthesis may only occur in the presence of light, so it must happen during the day. Cellular respiration may occur at all times.
17
1. Photosynthesis requires: -chlorophyll -sunlight – what colour of light will not work? -water -CO 2 2. Photosynthesis produces: -O 2 (oxygen gas) -C 6 H 12 0 6 (glucose) 3. Online QuizOnline Quiz
