Staying Alive … Elicitation question ~ two tubs
Where has the extra ‘stuff’ come from?
Only rain water is added to the growing tree over 5 years. There is the same amount of soil as there was, but the tree has grown big.

How plants work Germination and growth – materials and
energy (seed and cells) Photosynthesis – production of food and
oxygen (leaves) Growth and transport (stem and roots) Reproduction and life cycle (flowers)

Plants & energy
Click two of the following, which are sources of ENERGY for a plant to grow
Carbon dioxide and water 38% Minerals taken up from the soil 40% Sunlight through photosynthesis 90% Glucose and oxygen through respiration 26%
%ages are for a group of 100 trainee primary teachers on entry to ITE, having obtained a ‘C’ or better at GCSE, usually two or three years previously.

Photosynthesis The next three slides provide a rather different
holistic view of photosynthesis. Emphasis is on the role of oxygen, released
during photosynthesis and used during respiration.
We focus too much on the role of biomass (the fuel) in carrying energy – it is the system, the fuel/oxygen system that stores the energy.
