What is photosynthesis? Process where plants use sun’s energy to make their own food • Plants’ leaves contain green pigment called? which makes photosynthesis possible chlorophyll
The chlorophyll absorbs or captures the? Where is chlorophyll located? Sunlight or sun’s energy In the chloroplasts
The is combined with, and nutrients from the soil. sunlight water Carbon Dioxide CO2
The chlorophyll processes the ingredients and makes sugarand What is the name of this sugar? oXYGEN (O2). Glucose Sugar + Air O2
Animals including humans make the plants need.The plants make the and food for energy we need. CO2 (Carbon dioxide) O2 /Oxygen Glucose

Quick review Q. What is photosynthesis? A. Process where plants use sun’s energy to make their own food Q. What is the job of the chlorophyll? • It absorbs or captures the sun’s energy Q. What do animals and humans make that plants need? • Carbon Dioxide or CO2 • What do plants make for us that we need? A. Oxygen and food (Glucose) for energy
Q: What are the raw materials/ingredients for photosynthesis? A: 6 Carbon Dioxide/CO2 molecules and 6 Water/H2O molecules Q: What are the products of photosynthesis? A: 1 Glucose/C6H12O6 molecule and 6 Water/H2O molecules Q: Why is the Sun’s energy over the arrow in the photosynthesis equation? A: Because the sun’s energy doesn’t change during photosynthesis Write the chemical equation for photosynthesis
