Question 2

what is the word equation for photosynthesis?

Answer 2

Carbon dioxide + Water —> Glucose + Oxygen

Question 3

what is photosynthesis

Answer 3

endothermic reaction which energy is transferreed from the environment to the chloroplasts by light

Question 4

how do plants use glucose

Answer 4

-Respiration
-Converting into insoluble starch for storage
-Producing fats or oil for storage
-Producing cellulose to strengthen the cell wall
-Producing amino acids for protein synthesis

Question 5

limiting factors of photosynthesis

Answer 5

-CO2 Concentration
-Light intensity
-Temperature

Question 6

whatis transpiration

Answer 6

act of moving water and minerals up the plant which is only in the xylem

Question 7

what is translocation

Answer 7

movement of sugars in plants which only happens in the phloem

Question 8

stages of photosynthesis

Answer 8

• plant takes co2 and h2o into the leaf
• light energy is absorbed by chlorophyll
• the light energy converts CO2 and H2O into the sugar glucose
• Oxygen is also produced
