PHOTOSYNTHESIS Notes

Master photosynthesis with our fun worksheet! Covers key terms, diagrams, and the science behind plant food.

Record your first and last name Name_ Photosynthesis video StudyJams Photosynthesis Watch the video and answer the questions. Which ingredient is necessary for photosynthesis? water carbon dioxide sunlight all of the above Which part of a plant works as its “nostrils”? stoma guard cells chloroplasts all of the above Where does photosynthesis take place? in the roots only under the leaves in chloroplasts in chloroplastsin chromosomes What part does chlorophyll play in photosynthesis? It transports sugar and water to a plant’s leaves. It captures the sun's energy. It drinks water from the soil around the roots of a plant. It breathes the air around a plant and gets carbon dioxide. What are water and carbon dioxide converted into by the end of photosynthesis? air and sunlight water and air sugar and water sugar and oxygen Where do people and animals get the oxygen they breathe? from plants from other animals from water from the Sun What do plants do with sugar? release it through their stoma eat it for energy convert it into oxygen convert it into water Chemical equation and word equation for photosynthesis. What are the two things needed by plants, bacteria and protists for photosynthesis? Oxygen and water Carbon Dioxide and water Water and glucose ( a sugar) Carbon dioxide and Glucose (a sugar) What are the two things made by plants, bacteria and protists by photosynthesis? Oxygen Carbon Dioxide Water Glucose (a sugar) Label the Diagram Read the statements on the diagram to get a better understanding of photosynthesis. Click the blue dots to label the diagram. Use the wordssunlight, carbon dioxide, glucose, water, oxygen. sunlight carbon dioxide oxygen glucose water Photosynthesis by Ameoba Sisters Watch the video to learn more about photosynthesis. Make sure to watch the video before answering the questions. Fill in the blank below. In photosynthesis, light energy from the sun is converted into chemical energy What types of organisms perform photosynthesis? Plants, Bacteria, Protists Bacteria, Animals, Fungi Animals, Protists, Plants Protists, Plants, Animals Fungi, Bacteria, Protist Fill in the blank. Photosynthesis occurs in the chloroplast organelle part of the plant cell. Fill in the blank. Pigments are structures that absorb wavelengths of color. Whichever wavelengths are not absorbed are reflected back. Receptors in our eyes absorb these reflected wavelengths and our brain interprets them as the objects color! Which pigment below is found in the thylakoid of plants and is responsible for their green color? Carotenoid Anthocyanin Chlorophyll Fill in the blanks below for the photosynthesis equation Light + Carbon Dioxide + Water --> Glucose + Oxygen What happens to the glucose produced in photosynthesis? Select ALL that apply The glucose is modified stored in the plant for later use The glucose is used directly as energy by the chloroplast The glucose is moved to the mitochondria where it will be converted into energy The glucose is released as a waste product Which of the following may go through the process of photosynthesis? Plants, Bacteria, Protists Bacteria, animals, Protist Protists, Fungi, Animals Bacteria, Fungi, Animals Fungi, Bacteria, Plants Photosynthesis Brainpop Sort the reactants and products of photosynthesis into the "needs" and "releases" categories Needs (Input) Water Light Carbon Dioxide Releases (Output) Oxygen Glucose Vocabulary matching Match the term to its definition. chloroplast plant organelle part where photosynthesis takes place carbon dioxide Gas taken in and used during photosynthesis.(input) oxygen Gas product of photosynthesis (output) chlorophyll Absorbs light energy. Pigment that gives a plant its green color. Found in the chloroplast photosynthesis Process where plants use the sun's energy to convert (change) water and carbon dioxide into glucose Law of Conservation of Mass Matter is neither created nor destroyed but can change forms glucose the type of sugar made during photosynthesis Photosynthesis Equation Look at tiles.Arrange the boxes to create the equation for photosynthesis. Record the equation on your sheet of paper and here on the document.Don’t forget to record the plus sign and yield (arrow).You may use the A for textboxes to type or you may use the drawing tools to label.Please note that not all boxes will be used in theequation.
