Learn how plants make food through photosynthesis, transport water and nutrients, and exchange gases through their leaves.
Photosynthesis is the process by which plants use sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide to produce food (glucose) and release oxygen.
What raw materials does a plant need for photosynthesis?
Sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide
What does a plant produce through photosynthesis?
Glucose (food) and oxygen
Plants transport water and minerals from roots to leaves, and exchange gases like oxygen and carbon dioxide through tiny pores called stomata.
What are the tiny pores on a leaf's surface called?
Stomata
What do plant roots absorb from the soil?
Water and minerals
1. What are the raw materials for photosynthesis?
2. What gas do plants release during photosynthesis?
3. What are the tiny pores on a leaf called?
4. What do plant roots absorb from the soil?
5. Why is photosynthesis important for other living things, not just the plant?
Great work finishing every chapter. Onwards to new challenges!
