Click on the flashcard to see the answer
What is the process through which plants convert sunlight into energy?
Photosynthesis
What are the two main reactants in photosynthesis?
Carbon dioxide and water
What are the two main products of photosynthesis?
Glucose and oxygen
In what organelle does photosynthesis occur?
Chloroplasts
Which pigment is responsible for capturing sunlight in photosynthesis?
Chlorophyll
What is the primary source of energy for photosynthesis?
Sunlight
What is the function of stomata in photosynthesis?
To allow for gas exchange (carbon dioxide in, oxygen out)
What is the equation for photosynthesis?
