Biology: Presentation On Photosynthesis

PhotosynthesisBiology PresentationWhat is Photosynthesis?The process by which green plants and some other organisms use sunlight to synthesize or make food from carbon dioxide, water and other natural elements.Give and Explain the Generalized Equation for PhotosynthesisThe process of photosynthesis starts out as with six carbon dioxide molecules and six water molecules that are converted into sugar molecules using light energy from the suns rays captured by the chlorophyll in the leaf. The sugar molecules are defined as the plants food while six oxygen molecules are determined to be the by product or the waste gas of the whole process.What are the main stages in photosynthesis and where does it occur?The main stages of photosynthesis are:The light- dependent reaction which takes place in the thylakoid discs which is located in the chloroplast of every green plant. There, water (H20) is oxidized, and oxygen (O2) is released.The Calvin cycle which takes place in the stroma which is also located in the chloroplast of every green plant.What happens to the Products of Photosynthesis?During photosynthesis, plants take in carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O) from the air and soil. Within the plant cell, the water is oxidized. This means that it loses electrons, whilst carbon
