PHOTOSYNTHESIS
GROUP 4
Light Energy and Plants
Learning Objectives• By the end of this lesson, students should be able to: -explain that the process of photosynthesis converts light
energy to chemical energy. - explain that the sun is the original energy source for most
life on earth. -identify the reactants and products of photosynthesis. -explain which reactions in photosynthesis are light
dependent which are light independent. -explain why many plants appear green to us here on
earth.Return to TOC
Colors/Visible LightS8P4. Students will explore the wave nature of sound and electromagnetic radiation.
a. Identify the characteristics of electromagnetic and mechanical waves. b. Describe how the behavior of light waves is manipulated causing reflection, refraction diffraction, and absorption. c. Explain how the human eye sees objects and colors in terms of wavelengths. d. Describe how the behavior of waves is affected by medium (such as air, water, solids). e. Relate the properties of sound to everyday experiences.

• The green color comes from chlorophyll in the chloroplasts
• Chloroplasts absorb light energy and convert it to chemical energy

• Photosynthesis is the process by which autotrophic organisms use light energy to make sugar and oxygen gas from carbon dioxide and water

PHOTOSYNTHESIS
Photosynthesis
• Occurs in chloroplasts• The green color comes from chlorophyll
in the chloroplasts• Chlorophyll is the green pigment that
captures light for photosynthesis• The pigments absorb light energy and
create sugar and oxygen
