- Uses light energy
- Contains chlorophyll which absorbs light energy
- Glucose stored as starch
- For photosynthesis overnight
- Limiting Factors
- CO2 concentration
- Temperature
- Light intensity
- Leaf structure
- Broad - big surface area for light to fall on
- Many chloroplasts containing chlorophyll to absorb light energy
- Air spaces to allow gases to get in and out
- veins to transport water
