- Plant Structure
- Plant Cells are organised
- Plants are made of organs like stem, roots and leaves
- Leaves are made off
- 1)Mesophyll tissue-this is where most of the photosynthesis in plants happens
- 2)Xylem and phloem-theu transport things like water, mineral ions and sucrose around the plant
- 3)Epidermal tissue-this covers the whole plant
- Carbon dioxide + water = glucose and oxygen
- Photosynthesis produces glucose using sunlight
- Its the process that produces 'food' in plants and algae, and the food is glucose
- It happens inside the chloroplasts
- Chloroplasts contain a green substance called chlorophyll, which absorbs sunlight and uses energy to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose
- It happens in the leaves of all green plants
- Plant Cells are organised
