What is the process of photosynthesis from start to finish?

Answer 1

1. First the chlorophyll (the chemical that makes plants leaves green and traps sunlight) traps the sunlight in the leaves. (The sunlight provides energy for the plants.)

2. Next the sunlight gives the plant energy to start the food-making process.

3. Then the roots suck nutrients up to the leaves and then the leaves mix carbon dioxide, the nutrients and water to make their food. (sugar)

4. Finally they throw out their waste (oxygen).

Answer 2

During photosynthesis, carbon dioxide and water are used to synthesize sugars. It occurs with the help of the radiant energy from the sun which is absorbed by the chlorophyll of the green plants.

There are two main stages- light reaction and dark reaction.

Answer 3

word equation:

carbon dioxide + water -->* (arrow) oxygen + glucose

*sunlight and chlorophyll are over the arrow.

-during the day, while they photosynthesise, plants take in carbon dioxide + give out oxygen into the air.

-chlorophyll (the green pigment inside the chloroplasts) traps light energy in the leaves.

-sunlight is needed.

-the plant makes glucose (sugar) for food from photosynthesis. Glucose cannot be stored in the plant, so it's converted into a substance called Starch.

In bright sunlight a plant is photosynthesising faster than it is respiring therefore it takes in carbon dioxide + gives out oxygen.

In the dark a plant is respiring only + therefore takes in oxygen + gives out carbon dioxide.

In dim lighting conditions such as early morning + early evening, a plant is respiring at the same rate as it is photosynthesising. therefore there is no net exchange of gases.

Hope this helps! :)

Answer 4

Photosynthesis is a process by which plants, algae, and some bacteria convert sunlight, carbon dioxide, and water into glucose and oxygen. It occurs in the chloroplasts of plant cells. During photosynthesis, light energy is absorbed by chlorophyll, which then drives the conversion of carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen through a series of chemical reactions like the light-dependent and light-independent reactions.

Answer 5

Water and carbon dioxide combine using light energy to give glucose within the chloroplasts in a plant cell.

6H2O+6CO2 --> C6H12O6

Answer 6

1st step is Glycolisis

2nd step is Calvin cycle

3rd step is electron transport chain (ETC)

Answer 7

CO2 and H2O are produced in the presence of soil.

Answer 8

To find the answer you seek, drop acid and smoke a couple dabs then stare into the sun to find the answers of the universe.

Answer 9

photosynthesis is co2+H20=C6H12O6+O2 or carbon dioxide+Water=Glucose+oxygen, it's how plants produce energy from the sunlight
