Importance of water in plants?
The importance of water in plants is, that a plant sucks up water from the ground to give to it's chloroplasts [clor-o plasts] wich makes a white sugary substance that is the plant's only food supply
Why does a plant need carbon-dioxide?
Carbon dioxide is one of the ingredients that plants need, along with water, to make sugar: 6CO2 + 6H20 --------> C6H1206 + 602 Carbon Dioxide + Water -------> Sugar and oxygen Plants need carbon dioxide to make sugar just like you need flour to make a cake.
What is the waste product of photosenthesis?
Oxygen
What is the equation for photosenthesis?
it is the food that is produced in plants
What is the word equation of photosenthesis?
sunlight+water+carbon dioxide=oxygen and glucose (sugar)
How do you spell photosenthesis?
The correct spelling is photosynthesis (production of carbohydrates by plants).
What are the ingredients of photosenthesis?
Photosynthesis is the process where plants convert sunlight into energy (in very simple terms). There are not ingredients.
A plant cell can carry out photosenthesis because it has?
Chloroplasts. These are organelles only specific to plants which contain the pigment chlorophyll required to facilitate photosynthesis.
What 3 things is needed for photosenthesis to occur?
Photosynthesis requires Carbon Dioxide + Water in the presence of light, it's products are Glucose and Oxygen.
What does photosenthesis convert?
It converts H2O and CO2 into glucose. There are several steps, but overall it looks like: 6CO2 + 12H2O + Light Energy -> C6H12O6 + 6H2O + 6O2
What are some of the functions of the leaves?
There are a great many functions that could be taken on by a leaf. These functions include protecting the plant.
What is involved in photosenthesis?
The answer to this question is very in-depth. In a nutshell: the plant absorbs carbon dioxide through the stoma (small holes) on the bottom of the leaves. Light strikes chlorophyll molecules in the leaves, causing a reaction that splits a water molecule into hydrogen and oxygen. The hydrogen joins to carbon dioxide, creating carbohydrates, and the oxygen is released into the atmosphere.
What from of energy does a plant use to grow?
Photosynthetic energy is one type of energy used in plants. It is an energy that comes from light. This also depends on the type of light the plant gets.
