3. Light
provides energy for the process.
Chlorophyll
absorbs the energy from light.
Carbon Dioxide
diffuses into the leave from
the air.
Water
absorbed by the plant’s roots from
the soil.

5. THE FUNCTION OF
GLUCOSE:
Respiration in the leaf
Become starch and will be use in the
future, e.g. at night
To make cellulose(make cell wall)
Converted be sucrose to transported
to other parts of the plant in the
phloem
6. The Function of Oxygen
Used by the plant’s
respiration, if more than
needed oxygen will diffuse out
into the athmosphere.
7. LEAVES
Large surface area
absorb light rays.
Thin shape
gases can diffuse in and out easily.
Many chloroplasts
to absorb light for the
reactions.
Veins
support the leaf surface
carry water and ions to the leaf cells
take sucrose + amino acid to all other parts

9. Nitrate : make proteins, hormones
Magnesium : make chlorophyll
Phosphate : make DNA, for
respiration
