phototsynthesis Flashcards
What are 3 things needed for photosynthesis
Carbon dioxide
Water
Light
2 things plants make from photosynthesis
Glucose
Oxygen
Word equation for photosynthesis
Carbon dioxide + water —> glucose + oxygen
Where does photosynthesis take place
Chloroplast
Function of stomata
Allows CO2 to move but diffusion into the leaf
Guard cell function
To open and close the stomata depending on the conditions
Function of xylem and phloem
Transport water and food
What is a root hair cell
Project out from root into soil. Big surface are and thin walls. Lets water pass into theme easily
Symbol equation for photosynthesis
6co2 + 6H2O —> C6H12O6 + 6O2
Function of spongy Mesophyll layer
Where gas exchange happens
Conditions for germination
Moisture
Warmth
Nutrient rich soil
Sunlight
Different types of seed dispersal
Wind dispersal
Water dispersal
Explosion dispersal
Animal dispersal
What is transpiration
Evaporation of water through leaves
2 substances root hair cells absorb
Water
Nutrients
