3. Ps General Equation Requires:

4. Question • Does the Oxygen in sugar come from the CO2 or from the H2O ? • Model: CO2 + 2 H2O ----> CH2O + O2

5. Proof • Used 18O as a tracer. CO2 + 2 H2O ----> CH2O + O2 CO2 + 2 H2O ----> CH2O + O2

6. Ps: a redox process

14. Comment • In oceans, red light is lost or filtered out early because it has lower energy. • Only blue light which has higher energy can reach the lower depths.

15. Result • Many deep ocean fish are bright red in color. • Why? • They can’t be seen because there is no red light to reflect their color.
