PhotosynthesisBy Jaycie Arndt and Gus Schroth
Raw Materials
• CO2 = Carbon Dioxide = 1 Carbon + 2 Oxygen• H2O = Water = 2 Hydrogen + 1 Oxygen
Step 1
• Carbon Dioxide enters the leaf through the stomata.
Step 2
• Water enters the plant through the roots.
Step 3• Sunlight causes a
chemical change.
Step 4
• Plant produces food for itself. The food is glucose, also known as sugar
Step 5
• Oxygen is released back into the atmosphere.

6 Carbon Dioxide Molecules mix with 6 Water Molecules which combines with light to equal food and 12 Oxygen molecules to be let back into the atmosphere.

Respiration
Definition
• When plants use the stored food for energy.

Comparison of Photosynthesis and Respiration
Photosynthesis Respiration
Occurs in the presence of light Occurs at all times in cells
Requires energy (light) to make sugar (food)
Releases energy from sugar
Sugar is formed from simpler substances Sugar is broken down into simpler substances
Carbon dioxide and water are the raw materials
Carbon dioxide and water are the waste products
Oxygen is given out Oxygen is taken in
