Study Notes
Photosynthesis and States of Matter
- Carbon dioxide diffuses into leaf cells for photosynthesis, releasing oxygen as a byproduct.
- Plants have adaptations for photosynthesis and survival.
- Starch testing involves heating a leaf, boiling it in ethanol, and adding iodine solution to detect starch presence.
- Variegated leaves demonstrate the importance of chlorophyll in photosynthesis.
- Transpiration is the evaporation of water from spongy mesophyll cells, followed by vapor release through stomata.
- Water moves through xylem vessels in a continuous transpiration stream from root to leaf.
- Root hairs are crucial for water absorption due to their large surface area and ability to penetrate soil particles.
- Xylem transports water from roots to leaves, while phloem carries sucrose from leaves to shoots and roots.
- Solids have particles close together, with fixed shapes and inability to flow like liquids.
- Liquids have particles with enough energy to move and flow, but cannot be compressed.
- Gases have widely spaced particles that move freely and can be compressed.
- Chemical reactions rearrange atoms but do not change the number of atoms, and can be represented using equations.
