The process of photosynthesis in a simple and clear way.
Here's a quick breakdown of the steps:
1. Water:
Absorbed by roots from the soil.
Travels through vessels in the stem to the leaves.
2. Carbon Dioxide:
Enters through tiny pores in the leaves called stomata.
Comes from the surrounding air.
3. Sunlight:
Absorbed by chlorophyll (a green pigment in leaves).
Energy from sunlight is used to split water into hydrogen and oxygen.
4. Oxygen:
By-product of photosynthesis.
Released from the leaves into the air.
5. Glucose:
Made from hydrogen (from water) and carbon dioxide.
Used by the plant as food for growth and energy.
Extra Fact:
Photosynthesis helps maintain the balance of oxygen and carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.
