Biology I
Photosynthesis:
Life from Light and Air
Biology I
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

Biology I
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
Biology I
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

Using light & air to grow plants
 Photosynthesis
using sun’s energy to make glucose
 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
Biology I
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!

ENERGY & SUGAR
So what does a plant need?
 Bring In
light
 CO2
 H2O

leaves
 Let Out

shoot
O2
 Move Around


Biology
CO2

O2 H2O
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

Biology I
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
Biology I
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
Biology I
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

Biology I
if too much H2O evaporating
Xylem
carry water up from roots
Biology I
Phloem: food-conducting cells
Biology I
 carry sugars around the plant
wherever they are needed
 new leaves
 fruit & seeds
 roots
How are they connected?
Respiration
glucose + oxygen  carbon + water + energy

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
Biology I
Then all the cats, dogs,
mice, people & elephants…
are really strands of air woven
together by sunlight!
sun
Got the energy…
