PHOTOSYNTHESIS DIAGRAM
On an A3 sheet of paper draw a digarm representing how plants photosynthesis.
Ensure your diagram includes:







How the plant Gains water, Carbon dioxide, sunlight, minerals
Where photosynthesis occours (chloroplast and chlorophyll)
How the plant Stores Glucose
How the plant Releases Oxygen
How the plant Transports food and water through out its body
The stem, leaves and roots of the plant
Sun
When labelling the diagram ensure you use the following words:
 Chloroplast
 Chlorophyll
 Glucose
 Oxygen
 Carbon dioxide
 Water
 Magensium, nitrate, phosphorus and potassium
 Sun light
 Xylem and Phloem
 Stomata, palisade layer and guard cells
 Roots and leaves

The picture is easy to
read, understand and
contains all the correct
structures. It was clear
that effort and time was
put in.

however messy, and
contains 50% all the
correct structures. It
was clear that there
was little effort and
time was put in.
