B4: Processes of Life

This is the process where GREEN plants and some OTHER organisms use SUNLIGHT to synthesize foods from Carbon Dioxiode (CO2) and Water (H2O).  

GLUCOSE is used to build many other molecules in living things.Glucose is produced in PHOTOSYNTHESIS - it can then be converted into another carbohydrate suitable for storage called STARCH!
Glucose is used for ENERGY - which is released by respiration. 

ENZYMES are protein molecules that speed up the rate of CHEMICAL REACTIONS in living organisms.

They need a specific and constant temperature to work. 

Enzymes can speed up Catabolic reactions (where molecules are broken down) as well as Anabolic  reactions (Where new molecules are built up)
