Photosynthesis
Why is Photosynthesis
important?
Makes organic molecules
out of inorganic materials.
It begins all food chains &
webs.
All life is supported by this
process.
It also makes oxygen gas!
Photosynthesis- THE start to food webs!
Photo-synthesis= “making things with light."
Plants use sunlight to
turn water and carbon
dioxide into glucose.
Plants use glucose as
food
Autotrophs make
glucose and
heterotrophs are
consumers of it.
Photosynthesis
Carbon dioxide + water sunlight
glucose + oxygen
absorbed by chlorophyll
6CO2 + 6H2O + energy  C6H12O6 + 6O2

 Chlorophyll is a
molecule that
absorbs light
energy.
• In plants, chlorophyll is
found in organelles called
chloroplasts.

Photosynthesis in plants occurs
in chloroplasts.
 Photosynthesis
takes place in two
parts of
chloroplasts.
 grana
(thylakoids)
 stroma

 The light-dependent reactions capture
energy from sunlight.
–
–
–
–
take place in thylakoids
water and sunlight are needed
chlorophyll absorbs energy
energy is transferred along thylakoid membrane
then to light-independent reactions
– oxygen is released
 The light-independent reactions
make sugars.
– take place in stroma
– needs carbon dioxide from atmosphere
– use energy to build a sugar in a cycle of chemical
reactions
 The equation for the overall process is:
6CO2 + 6H2O  C6H12O6 + 6O2

Two Steps of Photosynthesis
 Light Dependent Reactions (thylakoid)
 Sunlight is absorbed and converted to chemical
energy
 Water is taken in and broken down into oxygen
 Chemical energy is temporarily stored in plants as
ATP
 Light Independent Reactions (stroma)
 CO2, ATP, make organic compounds
6CO2 + 6H2O
C6H12O6 + 6O2
Studying Photosynthesis
 Know what goes into each step and comes out of each step
