This process is called photosynthesis.                                                                                                        ]]> 2017-03-27 16:51:05 UTC https://padlet.com/mlinnenbrink70286/j82egwk5mmfw/wish/162887733 What Plants Need To Make Food mlinnenbrink70286 https://padlet.com/mlinnenbrink70286/j82egwk5mmfw/wish/162890540 *Carbon dioxide

Leaves are made up of very small cells. Inside of these cells are very tiny structures called chloroplasts. Each of the chloroplasts contains a green chemical called chlorophyll which gives the leaves a green color.]]> 2017-03-27 17:02:39 UTC https://padlet.com/mlinnenbrink70286/j82egwk5mmfw/wish/162892191 Light Dependent Reactions mlinnenbrink70286 https://padlet.com/mlinnenbrink70286/j82egwk5mmfw/wish/163192822 Light dependent reactions occur in the thylakoid membrane of the chloroplasts and take place only when light is available.  During these reactions light energy is converted to chemical energy.]]> 2017-03-28 16:41:18 UTC https://padlet.com/mlinnenbrink70286/j82egwk5mmfw/wish/163192822 mlinnenbrink70286 https://padlet.com/mlinnenbrink70286/j82egwk5mmfw/wish/163193295 *Chlorophyll and other pigments absorb energy from sunlight.  This energy is transferred to the photosystems responsible for photosynthesis.
*Water is used to provide electrons and hydrogen ions but also produces oxygen. ]]> 2017-03-28 16:42:35 UTC https://padlet.com/mlinnenbrink70286/j82egwk5mmfw/wish/163193295 Indroduction mlinnenbrink70286 https://padlet.com/mlinnenbrink70286/j82egwk5mmfw/wish/163197529 Photosynthesis provides oxygen and food. Photosynthesis is so essential to life on earth that most living organisms,including humans,cannot survive without it.  ]]> 2017-03-28 16:54:39 UTC https://padlet.com/mlinnenbrink70286/j82egwk5mmfw/wish/163197529
