What is photosynthesis?
Photosynthesis is the process by which plants use light energy to produce glucose from CO₂ & water in the chloroplasts.
What is the word equation for Photosynthesis?
Carbon Dioxide + Water => Glucose + Oxygen (+ATP)
What is the chemical formula for Photosynthesis?
C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂ → 6CO₂ + 6H₂O + (ATP)
What are the conditions for Photosynthesis?
Light Energy
Excess Water
Chlorophyll
What are the importances of Photosynthesis?
Photosynthesis => Glucose & Oxygen => ACR => Plant Grows=> Medicine, Clothes, Food

What is the function of the Cell Wall?
Provides structure & support for the cell
What is the function of the Plasma Membrane?
Regulates inputs & outputs of the cell
What is the function of the Cytosol?
Fluid part of the cell where some chemical reactions occur
What is the functions of the Nucleus?
Contains DNA which controls cellular functions by coding for proteins
What is the function of the Permanent Vacuole?
Stores cell sap
What is the function of Chloroplasts?
Site of photosynthesis
What is the function of Mitochondria?
