Understanding Photosynthesis: The Process of Plant Food Production

Discover what photosynthesis is and how plants make their own food through this essential process. Chlorophyll in plant leaves absorbs sunlight, combining it with water, carbon dioxide, and soil nutrients to produce sugar and oxygen. Learn how plants and animals rely on each other for survival.

Presentation Transcript

  1. Photosynthesis

  2. What is photosynthesis? • Process plants use to make their own food • Plants’ leaves contain chlorophyll • Chlorophyll (green color) that makes photosynthesis possible

  3. The chlorophyll absorbs the sunlight.

  4. The sunlight is combined with water, Carbon Dioxide and nutrients from the soil. CO2

  5. The chlorophyll processes the ingredients and makes sugar (plant food) and oxygen. Sugar + Air O2

  6. Plants and animals need each other to survive.

  7. Animals and humans make the CO2 (carbon dioxide) plants need.The plants make the O2 (oxygen) and food we need.
