Plant take water, sun and Co2 to make glucose and oxygen for air and food.
Chloroplasts
Chloroplasts are esssential
takes in solar energy
makes chemical energy
chloroplasts
chlorophyll
energy
Chlorophyll are good too
Photosynthesis takes in carbon and hydrogen and transfers it into glucose and oxygen. The oxygen is releases as waste from the plant and the glucose is used by the plant as a source of food and energy.
Light Dependent
C6H12O6
6O2
H2O
The thylakoid membrane converts solar energy into chemical energy and the product of that is ATP, NADPH,and H. The Stroma then takes in this energy and makes glucose.
Light Independent
releases ATP, NADPH, and H
used to make glucose
The chlorophyll is what makes the plants appear green. This helps it absorb light mostly from the sun to be transferred into energy.
The End
Energy from the sun is passed down the electron transport chain and is stored in the bonds of ATP and NADPH. Water molecules are then split into hydrogen and oxygen. The oxygen is released as waste and then ATP, NADPH, and hydrogen leave the grana and go into the stroma for the next stage.
wow!That's a lot to take in
energy
O2
In the stroma, plants use energy from light-dependent reactions to combine carbon dioxide and hydrogen to make glucose.
