Photosynthesis is the process through which plants use the sun's energy to make their own food. The reactants are carbon dioxide and water. The plants get the carbon dioxide through the stomata which are the tiny pores on the underside of the leaf. They get the water through the roots. The products of photosynthesis are oxygen and glucose. The oxygen is released through the stomata or used in respiration. The glucose is the food the plant needs. It is converted into starch which is stored in the leaf. Photosynthesis also releases energy. Sunlight is needed for photosynthesis to take place so it only happens in the day time and happens more in summer than in winter. Chlorophyll, the green pigment found in leaves, is also needed. Photosynthesis takes place in the palisade cells in the leaf.
Word equation for photosynthesis:
___________________in the presence of sunlight + chlorophyll
Carbon dioxide + water ------------------------------------------> glucose + oxygen + energy
Balanced chemical equation:
6CO2 + 6H2O ---> C6H12O6 + 6O2

What part of plant cell is needed for photosynthesis to happen?
Chloroplasts, which are organelles only found in plant cells
How do photosynthesis happened during night?
It stops processing,because there is no light.
Plants cannot release energy from glucose using?
Photosynthesis.
What molecule is a process of photosynthesis?
Why is photosynthesis essential to animals?
How do plants make chlorophyll?
Plants make chlorophyll by the process of photosynthesis.
What is cellular Photosynthesis?
Photosynthesis is a process. It is happening on chloroplasts. If any cell got them, it will be happened.
What happened to energy in the sun during photosynthesis?
it will break down the photosynthesis and the plant around the world thx everybody : )
What happened to amount of oxygen in air if photosynthesis stopped?
no effect
What is the purpose of detecting the presence of starch in leaf?
It can be used to prove that photosynthesis has happened.
What are the end and products of photosynthesis?
and also because your uglybecause since you were born that happened your bad luck
What part of plant cell is needed for photosynthesis to happen?
Chloroplasts, which are organelles only found in plant cells
How do photosynthesis happened during night?
It stops processing,because there is no light.
What will happened if you use direct sunlight to observe you specimen?
The specimen will dry up and possibly not be able to with hold photosynthesis. It can cause serious eye damage.
Plants cannot release energy from glucose using?
Photosynthesis.
How do you put photosynthesis in syllables?
Photosynthesis is a process that occurs in plant leaves.
Process by which plants and some bacteria use the energy from sunlight to produce sugar?
Photosynthesis Photosynthesis Photosynthesis Photosynthesis
What important process occurs in the chloroplasts?
Photosynthesis take place in chloroplasts.It is a very important reaction.
