Photosynthesis is a multi-step, enzyme-mediated process that converts light energy into chemical energy. During photosynthesis, plant cells use light energy (such as light emitted from the sun), water (H 2 O), and carbon dioxide (CO 2) as reactants to produce sugar molecules (C 6 H 12 O 6) and oxygen (O 2) (Figure 1):
ABSTRACT. Life requires energy as it is the fuel of each living organism. Initially, plants acquire energy by capturing sunlight to form energy. This process is called photosynthesis where energy is acquired in the form of ATP and NADPH during the light dependent reaction.

Mar 13, 2024 · State which organelles carry out photosynthesis and which type or types of leaf cells have this organelle. Explain why it is useful to the plant to have air spaces around the spongy mesophyll cells in the leaves.
During photosynthesis, plants convert light, water, and carbon dioxide from the air into oxygen and sugars. In this activity, you will be able to observe the oxygen production in leaves by doing a floating leaf disk experiment.

Jul 11, 2023 · This Photosynthesis Investigation includes: Part 1. Measuring the Rate of Photosynthesis. In this section, students learn how to use the floating leaf disk method to measure the rate of net photosynthesis (i.e. the rate of photosynthesis minus the rate of cellular respiration).
Photosynthesis Lab. Photosynthesis is one of the most important anabolic chemical reactions that allows life to exist on Earth. With water, light energy from the sun, and carbon dioxide from the air, photosynthetic organisms are able to build simple sugars.
