Document Summary

Water comes from the soil, it is transported through the roots to the leaves, This is driven by a process known as transpiration, the water is driven through this because as it gets to the leaves it evaporates and this pulls more water up from the soil- On the leaves, there are stomata: small pores that take in co2. An important thing from photosynthesis is that the byproduct is oxygen. Water is the substrate that causes the production of oxygen, not co2: inside the plant cell is a chloroplast, in the chloroplast are the thylakoids, these are important for photosynthesis. 2 types of reactions for photosynthesis: the light pathway/reaction: requires light, is driven by light energy that is captured by chlorophyll, it produces atp, nadph (high energy electron carrier). [makes lots of energy and oxygen: the light independent reaction: (calvin cycle) this uses light energy indirectly. During the calvin cycle, you use the atp, nadph and co2 to produce sugars.
