Chloroplast- organelle in which photosynthesis takes place.
Organelle- a specialized part of a cell.
Glucose- a type of sugar.
Carbon Dioxide- absorbed from the air by plants in photosynthesis.
Light Intensity- the energy hitting an area over some time period.
Heterotroph- an organism that eats other plants or animals for energy and nutrients.
Autotroph- an organism that can produce its own food using light, water, carbon dioxide, or other chemicals.
Compound- a whole formed by a union of two or more elements or parts.
Chlorophyll-  any green pigments found in photosynthetic organisms. ]]> 2023-05-15 13:14:53 UTC https://padlet.com/2025bowserh/4f3lpy6c7a7vs990/wish/2591304339 2025bowserh https://padlet.com/2025bowserh/4f3lpy6c7a7vs990/wish/2591320788 Photosynthesis equation 6CO2+6H2O→C6H12O6+6O2.

Both the generic word equation and the chemical equation.
6CO2 + 6H2O →C6H12O6 + 6O2, six carbon dioxide molecules and six water molecules converted by light energy turned into a sugar molecule and six oxygen molecules.

Plants take in(CO2) and (H2O) from the air and soil. Within the plant cell, the water is oxidized, meaning it loses electrons, while the carbon dioxide is reduced, meaning it gains electrons. This transforms the water into oxygen and the carbon dioxide into glucose.

Plants would have no way to obtain energy because photosynthesis would stop.

Chlorophyll gives plants their green color because it does not absorb the green wavelengths of white light.

It is also the reason why we have plants and food. Almost all living organisms use the energy provided by it in order to survive. Without photosynthesis no one would be able to survive. ]]> 2023-05-16 13:10:21 UTC https://padlet.com/2025bowserh/4f3lpy6c7a7vs990/wish/2593072190 2025bowserh https://padlet.com/2025bowserh/4f3lpy6c7a7vs990/wish/2593080991 The Calvin Cycle is a series of chemical reactions that convert carbon dioxide and hydrogen-carrier compounds into glucose.]]> 2023-05-16 13:16:05 UTC https://padlet.com/2025bowserh/4f3lpy6c7a7vs990/wish/2593080991 2025bowserh https://padlet.com/2025bowserh/4f3lpy6c7a7vs990/wish/2593082788 ATP is the source of energy for use and storage at the cellular level. ]]> 2023-05-16 13:17:17 UTC https://padlet.com/2025bowserh/4f3lpy6c7a7vs990/wish/2593082788 2025bowserh https://padlet.com/2025bowserh/4f3lpy6c7a7vs990/wish/2593087535 ATP has three phosphate groups, but the bond holding the third phosphate groups is very easily broken. When the phosphate is removed, ATP becomes ADP—adenosine diphosphate.
