Green Power:
How Plants
Harness the
Energy of the
Sun
Green Power
Plants are amazing at turning sunlight
into energy. This creative presentation
will explore the science behind how
they do it and what we can learn from
them.
Photosynthesis
Photosynthesis is the process by which
plants convert light energy into
chemical energy. They do this by using
pigments like chlorophyll to absorb
photons and create ATP and NADPH.
The Calvin Cycle
The Calvin Cycle is the series of
chemical reactions that plants use to
create glucose from CO2. This process
requires ATP and NADPH, which are
produced during photosynthesis.
Adaptations
Plants have evolved a variety of adaptations to
help them capture and use sunlight more
efficiently. These include leaf shape, pigment
composition, and photosynthetic pathways.
Renewable Energy
By studying how plants convert
sunlight into energy, we can develop
new renewable energy technologies
that mimic their efficiency and
sustainability. These could include
solar cells and biofuels.
Conclusion
Plants are truly creative in how they harness the power of the
sun. By understanding their photosynthetic processes and
adaptations, we can develop new green technologies that
benefit both people and the planet.
