    Study Notes

    Photosynthesis

    Reactants

    • Light energy is obtained from the sun
    • Carbon Dioxide is absorbed from the air
    • Water is absorbed from the soil

    Process

    • Carbon Dioxide enters the leaf through stomata (tiny openings on the underside of leaves)
    • Water is absorbed by roots from the soil and transported to leaves via the xylem
    • Light Energy is absorbed by chlorophyll in the chloroplasts, splitting water (H2O) into Hydrogen and Oxygen

    Products

    Glucose

    • Used by the plant for energy and growth
    • Stored as starch

    Oxygen

    • Released into the atmosphere
    • Essential for the respiration of most living organisms
