- Photosynthesis
- Carbon dioxide + water -> glucose + oxygen
- Glucose = Food
- Upper epidermis
- palisade mesophyll layer
- Spongy mesophyll layer
- Lower epidermis
- Spongy mesophyll layer
- palisade mesophyll layer
- Carbon dioxide in, Oxygen out
- Limiting factor
- Light
- Temperature
- Amount of carbon dioxide
- Enzymes work slow when cold but die if to hot
- Temperature
- Light
- Adaptations
- Tiny holes for carbon dioxide to diffuse
- Flat shape increase surface area
- Chloroplasts absorb light
- Upper epidermis is transparent to let light pass though
- Chloroplasts absorb light
- Flat shape increase surface area
- Tiny holes for carbon dioxide to diffuse
- Xylem = water up
- Phloem = food
- Green house keeps plants warm and in the sun
- Can install paraffin heater to increase carbon dioxide
