Study Notes
Chloroplasts and Photosynthesis
- A chloroplast can be thought of as a food factory, where carbon dioxide and water are the raw materials.
- Energy from sunlight is used to convert these raw materials into sugar (or glucose).
- Two by-products are created in this process: oxygen and a little extra water, which are released into the air.
Photosynthesis
- Photosynthesis is the process by which plants make food.
- It involves the conversion of carbon dioxide and water into sugar using energy from sunlight.
