Q

Reactants needed for photosynthesis

A

Co2- enters plants through stomata diffuse from high to low
H2O- enters through roots. Osmosis high to low

A

See through to allow light to pass through the stroma speeds up the rate of reaction

Q

Thylakoid membrane

A

Arranged in stacks called grana
This maximises surface area which maximises the amount of chlorophyll which maximises the amount of light absorbed maximising the amount of glucose created

A

Speed up the rate of reaction chain of amino acids they have an active site that binds to a specific substrate

Q

Pollutants

A

Blocking nutrient therefore denature reducing the rate of reaction therefore photosynthesis is reduced and less growth

Q

Aerobic

A

Presence of oxygen produces most energy occurs in the mitochondria filled with enzymes
Glucose+O2=CO2+Water+34ATP
