  1. Ch3 Sec3 Photosynthesis

  2. Key Concepts • How does the sun supply living things with the energy they need? • What happens during the process of photosynthesis?

  3. Key Terms • Photosynthesis • Autotroph • Heterotroph • Pigment • Chlorophyll • Stomata

  4. Ch3 Sec3 • Sources of Energy • The process by which a cell captures energy in sunlight and uses it to make food is called photosynthesis • Nearly all living things obtain energy either directly or indirectly from the energy of sunlight captured during photosynthesis • Autotroph is an organism that makes its own food • Heterotroph is an organism that cannot make its own food

  5. Ch3 Sec2 • The Two Stages of Photosynthesis • During photosynthesis, plants and some other organisms use energy from the sun to convert carbon dioxide and water into oxygen and sugars • Stage 1: Capturing the Sun’s Energy • Pigments are colored chemical compounds that absorb light • Chlorophyll is the main photosynthetic pigment in chloroplasts • Stage 2: Using Energy to Make Food • Stomata are small openings on the undersides of leaves • The Photosynthesis Equation
