Photosynthesis Flashcards
1
Q
What is the word equation for photosynthesis?
A
Carbon Dioxide + water = glucose + oxygen
2
Q
Where does photosynthesis take place?
A
Chloroplast
3
Q
What is involved in stage 1 of photosynthesis?
A
the Chloraphyll absorbs light (UV). from here the energy from the light is split into water and oxygen and is released into the atmosphere (Hydrogen is then taken to stage 2)
4
Q
What is involved in stage 2 of photosynthesis?
A
The carbon Dioxide is combined with the left over hydrogen from stage 1 to create glucose.
5
Q
what is the diagram for photosynthesis
A
Radiant Energy (UV) = Photosynthesis = glucose = respiration = ATP (Energy) = cell activities
