Photosynthesis

This category is for questions about the chemical process in which autotrophic organisms use sunlight, carbon dioxide and water to make glucose, water and oxygen. This process is vital to life and is of great importance in biology.

What might plant cells do with sugars made during photosynthesis?

broken by the Mitochondria to give energy to cells

brought together in very long forms to make Cellulose and make plant cell walls

transported to another place of the plant for energy, or transported to the root place for space

What does photosynthesis use and release?

Photosynthesis uses energy from the sun, water, carbon dioxide. It releases oxygen as a waste product from the process.

How do the processes of photosynthesis and respiration help recycle the air?

It is because plants breathe and live on a little bit of carbon dioxide, which humans and animals breathe out, and cannot survive on. So when the plants take in carbon dioxide they then let go of oxygen which is what we breathe.

So that leads us on to the fact that during photosynthesis plants need a lot of carbon dioxide which then is changed into oxygen. We then take in oxygen and give them carbon dioxide, and it repeats over and over again.

What are adjectives to photosynthesis?

Photosynthetic is the adjective form of photosynthesis. For instance, The test on photosynthetic processes was the hardest biology exam of the year.

Which is the product in the Calvin cycle?

Glucose is a product of the Calvin cycle. However, other sugars can be produced in the cycle, and ADP and NADP+ are also produced from the formation of glucose.

Which color of light has the most UV rays Red Or Blue?

In most situations, blue would.

See, Ultraviolet radiation is actually a form of light, as is infrared. They are called such because of the way we see light. Electromagnetic radiation, which includes visible light, also has a handful of wave-like properties, most of which occur at small enough levels that it is almost simpler to view them as particles. The color of the ray is dependent on its wavelength- longer wavelengths appear more 'red' in false color scans while shorter ones are perceived as blue or violet. The average human can only see between wavelengths of 390 and 780 nanometers (3.90*10^-7 and 7.80*10^-7 meters). While blue light would shine independently from ultraviolet light in ideal cases, most light sources end up emitting a wider spectrum than that difference. So, while both colors are likely to emit UV, blue is more likely to do so than red light is.

Which types of cell contain chloroplasts and are able to carry out photosynthesis?

which types of cell contain chloroplasts and are able to carry out photosynthesis

What two things are provided during photosynthesis?

Theri is o2 as a byproduct too. Glucose and O2 are results.

Why is photosynthesis important to the?

Plants use photosynthesis to produce food and energy. Plants are producers and at the bottom tier of the food chain. Without plants, animals would not be able to survive. This is why photosynthesis is important to the biosphere.

What organelle is responsible for solar absorption in plants?

It is the chloroplast.It contains pigment to absorb sun light.

What part of mitochondria does light reaction occur?

Mitochonndria are cell organells related to respiration. Light reaction, on the other hand, occurs during photosynthesis in the chloroplasts. Thus, any part of a mitochondrion is not responsible for light reactions.

Hire are photosynthesis and cellular respiration related?

Photosynthesis and cellular respiration are related since they both need each other to work. Both are in autotrophs, both use the electron transport chain, and they use the same equation.

Where are leftover sugars from photosynthesis stored in plants?

There is no specific place which could be generalized for all plants.

However, all fruit producing plants store excess sugars in fruits.

It is stored in roots of plants with edible roots such as carrot and beetroot.

It is also stored in stems of certain plants and in leaves of some plants.

What are the primary materials needed for photosynthesis?

Chlorophyll in chloroplasts in a living leaf, Carbon Dioxide, Water, Sunlight.

Do organisms obtain energy from photosynthesis?

Yes, photosynthesis is what converts the light energy from the sun into the usable chemical energy that organisms use.

How will day conditions affect photosynthesis?

To give a simple and dichotomous answer a bright, sunny day will maximize photosynthetic rate while a cloudy day will depress photosynthetic rate.

Which molecule from the Calvin cycle is used to replenish the five carbon sugar rubpwhich is used at the begging at the cycle?

You phosphorylate glycerol-3-phosphate (all 5 G3P ) with three ATP and you get ribulose bisphosphate, RuBP, and begin the Calvin cycle again

Does a producer use sunlight to convert carbon dioxide and water into sugar and oxygen?

Yes, you have given a simple definition of the photosynthesis preformed by producers; autotrophs.

Is butterwort autotrophic plant or heterotrophic plant?

All plants are autotrophs, even carnivorous plants such as Venus fly traps.

Why the food making process in plants is called photosynthesis?

Photo. The light reaction where light energy is turned into energy carrying molecules of ATP and NADPH.

Synthesis. The light independent reactions of the Calvin cycle where those energy rich molecules give up there electrons, carbon dioxide is fixed and sugar in the form of glyceraldihyde-3-phosphate is made.

What is the sole energy supplier for photosynthesis?

The sun is the ultimate supplier of all energy on earth, it lets the plant create glucose that it burns during photosynthesis for energy to create more glucose.

Hope this helps!

Are raw materials and product the same?

No. Raw materials are the materials that make up the product before anything is done to them; i.e. they are the materials that you start with. So for example, if I wanted to make a cake, the flour, sugar and eggs would be the raw materials; and the cake would be the product.
