Comprehend and summarize the process of photosynthesis, such as the roles of light, carbon dioxide, water and chlorophyll; production of food; release of oxygen. Identify the reactants, products, and basic functions of photosynthesis.
Include supporting evidence that living systems follow the Laws of Conservation of Mass and Energy

the chemical equation for photosynthesis is 6CO2 + 6H2O → C6H12O6 + 6O2

Explanation:

reactents-Photosynthesis requires sunlight, carbon dioxide, and water as starting reactants (Figure 5.5). After the process is complete, photosynthesis releases oxygen and produces carbohydrate molecules, most commonly glucose. These sugar molecules contain the energy that living things need to survive.

02(oxygen)-releases oxygen for any living thing

sun is necessary

xylem is a series of tubes

chloraphull must be present

cellular respiration oxidizes food into energy in the form of atps.

glycolysis (6 c hexose) > 2x atps are used > 6c hexose biphosphate > 2 x 3c triphosphate >

2 x 3c pyruvate (2x nadh produced from nad) and (4x atp produced)

pyruvate actively pumped mitochondrial matrix.
