This document provides an overview of photosynthesis and includes learning objectives, presenters, and content about the topic. It explains that photosynthesis converts light energy to chemical energy, identifies the reactants and products, and notes that the sun is the original energy source for most life on Earth. It also explains that plants appear green because chlorophyll in chloroplasts absorbs all colors of light except green.

- 11. Different wavelengths of visible light are seen by the human eye as different colors. WHYWHY AREARE PLAPLANTSNTS GREGREEN?EN? Gamma rays X-rays UV Infrare d Micro- waves Radio waves Visible light Wavelength (nm)
- 12. Why are plants green? Reflected light Transmitted light Sunlight minus absorbedSunlight minus absorbed wavelengths or colorswavelengths or colors equals the apparent color ofequals the apparent color of an object.an object.
- 13. The green color comes from chlorophyll in the chloroplasts Chloroplasts absorb light energy and convert it to chemical energy Light Reflected light Absorbed light Transmitted light Chloroplast THE COLOR OF LIGHT SEEN IS THE COLOR NOT ABSORBED
- 14. Photosynthesis is the process by which autotrophic organisms use light energy to make sugar and oxygen gas from carbon dioxide and water AN OVERVIEW OF PHOTOSYNTHESIS Carbon dioxide Water Glucose Oxygen gas PHOTOSYNTHESIS
- 15. Photosynthesis Occurs in chloroplasts The green color comes from chlorophyll in the chloroplasts Chlorophyll is the green pigment that captures light for photosynthesis The pigments absorb light energy and create sugar and oxygen
