Photosynthesis

?
What is the word equation?
Water+carbon dioxide<glucose+oxygen
1 of 7
Why is photosynthesis used?
For plants to make their own food and to use light energy
2 of 7
What are the uses of glucose?
Respiration [growth], starch and structure
3 of 7
What is the limiting factors?
Light= Intensity
Carbon dioxide concentration
Temprature
4 of 7
Info about carbon dioxide::
* Photosynthesis is effected by carbon dioxide in the air
*Even if there is plenty of light, a plant cannot photosynthesise
*Saturation point reached increasing the rate of Co2
5 of 7
Info about light intensity::
*Increases boost of photosynthesis
*Chloropyll has green pigemnt to absorb light
*without light they can't photosynthesise
6 of 7
Info about temp::
* If to cold the rate will decrease
* plants can't photosynthesise
* enzymes become denatured
