Study Notes
Photosynthesis
- Photosynthesis is the process by which green plants make their food from carbon dioxide and water in the presence of chlorophyll and sunlight
- The raw materials are carbon dioxide (from the air) and water (from the soil)
- Sunlight provides the energy for the process
- Chlorophyll is the pigment in green plants that absorbs sunlight
- The products of photosynthesis are glucose (food stored in the plant) and oxygen
Absorption of Water and Minerals
- Water and minerals are absorbed through the plant's roots
