Photosynthesis

?
Photosynthesis word equation?
Carbon dioxide + water ---> glucose + oxygen
1 of 9
Three things limit rate of photosynthesis?
-Low light - Low temperature - Low carbon dioxide
2 of 9
What is a limiting factor?
Something that when it is short supply slows down photosynthesis
3 of 9
Four uses of glucose in plants?
-Respiration - Produce oils/fats -Produce cellulose -Produce proteins
4 of 9
What added to glucose makes protein? where is it from?
Nitrate from soil
5 of 9
Why is it good for paraffin heater in greenhouse?
Increase carbon dioxide concentration in growing are of plants
6 of 9
Where is chlorophyll found? What's it function?
Inside chloroplast + Absorbs light energy combines CO2 + water into sugars
7 of 9
Substance that converted to storage? How can you test if present?
Starch + Iodine =changes from brown to blue/black if starch there
8 of 9
Experiment of leaf changing evaluation?
No chlorophyll in white part so no photosynthesis, no glucose or starch made therefore no iodine as not blue/balck
