1. Photosynthesis Photosynthesis

2. What is photosynthesis? The process plants use to make their own food Photosynthesis takes place in the leaves Plants’ leaves contain chloroplasts Chloroplasts contain chlorophyll Chlorophyll (green color) makes photosynthesis possible

3. The chlorophyll absorbs the sunlight.

5. The sunlight is combined with water (H 2 O), Carbon Dioxide (CO 2 ) and nutrients from the soil. CO 2

6. O2O2

7. Plants and animals need each other to survive.

8. Animals including humans make the CO 2 (carbon dioxide) plants need. They (the plants) make the O 2 (oxygen) and food we need.
