In my own words I would describe photosynthesis as a process plants go through to make their own food and releases oxygen during the process.

Photosynthesis makes me think of how they help with humans so we are able to breathe.]]> 2017-09-29 16:00:26 UTC https://padlet.com/131050017121/k1r210ap6icr/wish/192516689 131050017121 https://padlet.com/131050017121/k1r210ap6icr/wish/192518288 2017-09-29 16:03:49 UTC https://padlet.com/131050017121/k1r210ap6icr/wish/192518288 131050017121 https://padlet.com/131050017121/k1r210ap6icr/wish/192518823 It's a simple sugar that are made of six carbons, 12 hydrogen, and six oxygen.

I would describe glucose as a carbohydrate that is also known as sugar.

Glucose reminds me of sugar.]]> 2017-09-29 16:05:01 UTC https://padlet.com/131050017121/k1r210ap6icr/wish/192518823 131050017121 https://padlet.com/131050017121/k1r210ap6icr/wish/192520684 A series of reactions that are in photosynthesis that turns light energy into chemical energy.

I would describe light reactions as when a light hits it turns into chemical energy.

Light reactions make me think of big, organized messes.]]> 2017-09-29 16:09:02 UTC https://padlet.com/131050017121/k1r210ap6icr/wish/192520684 131050017121 https://padlet.com/131050017121/k1r210ap6icr/wish/192522229 2017-09-29 16:12:29 UTC https://padlet.com/131050017121/k1r210ap6icr/wish/192522229 131050017121 https://padlet.com/131050017121/k1r210ap6icr/wish/192522547 The second process of photosynthesis where MADPH and ATP are used to make glucose.

I would describe the Calvin cycle as a cycle that stores the chemical reactions during photosynthesis.

The Calvin Cycle reminds me of circle that repeats.]]> 2017-09-29 16:13:08 UTC https://padlet.com/131050017121/k1r210ap6icr/wish/192522547 131050017121 https://padlet.com/131050017121/k1r210ap6icr/wish/192523740 These are electrons acceptors. This is where the energy from the sun is stored for a bit, which is also used in the Calvin cycle.

I would describe NADP+/NADPH as electrons where energy gets stored.

NADP+/NADPH reminds me of batteries. One is charged and one isn't.]]> 2017-09-29 16:15:47 UTC https://padlet.com/131050017121/k1r210ap6icr/wish/192523740 131050017121 https://padlet.com/131050017121/k1r210ap6icr/wish/192525516 2017-09-29 16:19:51 UTC https://padlet.com/131050017121/k1r210ap6icr/wish/192525516 131050017121 https://padlet.com/131050017121/k1r210ap6icr/wish/192527467  A hydrogen molecule without a electron

I would describe Hydrogen Ions as ions that don't have electrons.

A hydrogen molecule reminds me of the little electron being stranded in the middle of no where.]]> 2017-09-29 16:24:49 UTC https://padlet.com/131050017121/k1r210ap6icr/wish/192527467
