Photosynthesis

Question 1

Equation for photosynthesis

Answer 1

Carbon dioxide + water —> oxygen + glucose

Question 2

Equation for photosynthesis with symbols

Answer 2

CO2 + H2O —> O2 + C6H12O6

Question 3

Is photosynthesis endothermic or exothermic

Answer 3

Endothermic

Question 4

Where is the light absorbed

Answer 4

In the chloroplasts

Question 5

How does temp increase photosynthesis

Answer 5

As temp increases so does the rate of photosynthesis

However if the temp gets too high the enzymes denature and the rate decreases

Question 6

How does light intensity affect the photosynthesis

Answer 6

Light intensity increases so does the rate of photosynthesis
But will stop suddenly when the light is no longer the limiting factor

Question 7

Concentration of CO2 how does it affect photosynthesis

Answer 7

Concentration increases so does the CO2

Same as long where it will stop suddenly as it is no longer the limiting factor

Question 8

Concentration of chlorophyll

Answer 8

Chlorophyll absorbs the light so the more chlorophyll the more photosynthesis

Question 9

What is glucose used for

Answer 9

Respiration
Conversion into starch 
Turned into fats or oils 
Turned into cellulose
Used to produce amino acids
