Photosynthisis
the process by which green plants and some other organisms use sunlight to synthesize nutrients from carbon dioxide and water. Photosynthesis in plants generally involves the green pigment chlorophyll and generates oxygen as a by-product.
Compitition
Animals and plants have to compete for limited
resources.
β’ The best competitors will have specific features e.g. sharp teeth, big claws and loud noises to frighten predotors
What do animals and plants compete for?
Animals compete for:
β’ Water
β’ Mates
β’ Shelter
β’ Food
β’ Territory
Plants compete for:
β’ Light
β’ Root space
β’ Mineral ions
. Water
What is the cell that traps light in a plant?
Chloroplast
What is the missing nutrient for the photosynthisis?
Photosythisis - carbon + waterβ> light chlorophill β> oxegen + ?
Dioxide
Glucose ( food )
