Photosynthesis:
Life from Light and Air
2006-
Plants are energy producers
Like animals, plants need energy to live
unlike animals, plants don’t need to eat
food to make that energy
Plants make both FOOD & ENERGY
animals are consumers
plants are producers
How do plants make energy & food?
Plants use the energy from the sun
to make ATP energy
to make sugars
glucose, sucrose, cellulose, starch, & more
sun
ATP
sugars
Building plants from sunlight & air
Photosynthesis
2 separate processes
sun
ENERGY building reactions
collect sun energy
use it to make ATP
ATP
SUGAR building reactions
take the ATP energy
collect CO2 from air &
H2O from ground
use all to build sugars
carbon dioxide
water
+ HO
CO2

H2O

CO2
sugars
C6H12O6
sugars
Using light & air to grow plants
Photosynthesis
using sun’s energy to make ATP
using CO2 & water to make sugar
in chloroplasts
allows plants to grow
makes a waste product
oxygen (O2)
(ATP) = used to build the sugar
carbon
sun
+ water + energy glucose + oxygen
dioxide
6CO2 + 6H2O + sun C6H12O6 + 6O2
energy
What do plants need to grow?
The “factory” for making
energy & sugars
sun
chloroplast
Fuels
CO2
sunlight
carbon dioxide
water
Make ATP!
Make sugar!
I can do it all…
And no one
even notices!

H2O
used immediately
to synthesize sugars
sugar
CO2
Chloroplasts are only in plants
animal cells
plant cells
Chloroplasts
Leaf
absorb
sunlight & CO2

ENERGY & SUGAR
So what does a plant need?
Bring In
light
CO2
H2O
leaves
Let Out
shoot
O2
Move Around
sugars
roots
6CO2 + 6H2O + light C6H12O6 + 6O2
energy
Leaf Structure
cuticle
epidermis
vascular bundle (vein)
xylem (water)
phloem (sugar)
palisades
layer
spongy
layer
epidermis
cuticle
stomate
guard
cells
xylem (water)
Transpiration
O2 H O
2
CO2 in
O2 out
water out
CO2
stomate
O2 H2O
so it gets to leaves from roots
CO2
guard
cells
Transpiration
Water evaporates from
the stomates in the
leaves
pulls water up from
roots
water molecules stick
to each other
more water is pulled
up tree from ground
Function of Leaf Structures
Cuticle
waxy coating reduces water loss
Epidermis
skin protecting leaf tissues
Palisades layer
high concentration of chloroplasts
collecting sun’s energy
photosynthesis
making ATP & sugars
Spongy layer
air spaces
gas exchange
CO2 in for sugar production, remove waste O2
Stomates & Guard Cells
Function of stomates
CO2 in
O2 out
H2O out
gets to leaves for photosynthesis
Function of guard cells
open & close stomates
guard cell
stomate
Guard cells & Homeostasis
Homeostasis
keeping the internal
environment of the
plant balanced
Stomates open
let CO2 in
needed to make sugars
let H2O out
needed for photosynthesis
let O2 out
get rid of waste product
Stomates close
if too much H2O evaporating
Xylem
carry water up from roots
Phloem: food-conducting cells
carry sugars around the plant
wherever they are needed
new leaves
fruit & seeds
roots
How are they connected?
Respiration
glucose + oxygen carbon + water + energy

C6H12O6 +
6O2
6CO2 + 6H2O + ATP

The poetic perspective
All of the solid material of every plant
was built out of thin air
All of the solid material of every animal
was built from plant material
air
Then all the cats, dogs,
mice, people & elephants…
are really strands of air woven
together by sunlight!
sun
Got the energy…
