PHOTOSYNTHESIS
Storyboard Text
- Hmm.. How they survive? what are their sources of food to maintain their healthy and strong structure?
- Wow! What a beautiful trees and flowers out there!
- Well students, have you heard about photosynthesis?To be able for the plants, trees, and flowers to survive - they need the process of photosynthesis. Let's find out the reactions.
- LIGHT DEPENDENT REACTION
- Sunlight
- Then, inside the chloroplast which is the chlorophyll absorbs the photons that has been provided by the sunlight.
- Photons from the sunlight provides energy for the chloroplast of the plants.
- ATP and NADPH are involved within this reaction. The chlorophyll molecule regains the lost electron from a water molecules through photolysis process, it will be absorbed by the roots and will broken down the photons.
- Oxygen
- After that, the water molecules or hydrogen will remain in the chloroplast and the photolysis causes for the oxygen to release in the gas state.
- Photosynthesis is the process in which the plants and other organisms transform light energy into chemical energy. It is used to make their own food in exchange for carbon dioxide, water, and sunlight.
- LIGHT INDEPENDENT REACTION
- The carbon dioxide that comes from the air absorbed by the plant, specifically the stomata part wherein it regulates the flow of the carbon dioxide inside and out.
- Carbon dioxide ( CO² )
- During the light-dependent reaction, the light from the sun and its photons were started to be absorbed by the certain plants and organisms to be able to convert the light energy into chemical energy. The chlorophyll that absorbs the photon causes electrons in a portion of the chlorophyll molecule to become temporarily "excited".
- The carbon dioxide that has been regenerated through the Calvin cycle will be used together with the hydrogen. It will be combined using the ATP and NADPH to be able to create the glucose.
- CO²
- Last process for light dependent reaction and that's how it works for the plants to make enough oxygen for us.
- Wow, that's how it goes! It takes a lot of process but I'm so glad that they can be able to perform it to survive!
- Those reactions are really different, I find out that during the light dependent reaction - to be able to provide, it needs sunlight. While, in light independent reaction - it is not complex and it doesn't need sunlight just to provide.
- Very well said, I hope it helps a lot to the both of you to appreciate the process of photosynthesis and the living organisms as well.
- This is where the Calvin cycle starts, it is a process wherein the plants are responsible to use the absorbed carbon dioxide from the air into sugar. This is where the carbon fixation, reduction and regeneration phase happens.
- During the Calvin cycle, the certain plants and organisms are independent wherein they can be able to provide glucose during the night time because of the remaining or stored energy of the organisms that has been harvested during the day time which is the light dependent reaction time.
- H
- Photosynthesis is essential to all living organisms because it provides the oxygen that is coming from the atmosphere. And, those oxygen are for the humans to be able to live. They recycle the carbon dioxide we breathe out and turn it back into oxygen so that we never run out. Also, they are a reliable source for humans because they are part of producing the food that we eat ^^.
