Carbon dioxide + water --> Oxygen + glucose
Leaf adaptations
- numerous stomata
- large SA
- cytoplasmic streaming
Stomata
- Potassium ions actively transported in, water moves in (stomata open)
- Chloride ions pumped out, potassium ions follow, water moves out (stomata close)
Chloroplasts
- absorbs red/blue light, reflects green light
- thylakoids provide large SA
- contain DNA and ribosomes
- granal membrane selectivelt permeable due to ATP synthase
