The document discusses photosynthesis, including the chemical equation that summarizes the process, factors that affect the rate of photosynthesis, and some key experiments and results regarding photosynthesis in plants. It provides information about what plants need to make amino acids and proteins from glucose, and the gases plants take in and release in darkness versus sunlight.
1. Photosynthesis Mainly based on the exercises from http://www.biology-resources.com/biology-questions.html IGCSE Revision Questions http://biodeluna.wordpress.com
6. 6CO 2 + 6H 2 O C 6 H 12 O 6 + 6O 2 glucose Photosynthesis (from the Greek φώτο- [photo-] , "light," and σύνθεσις [synthesis] , "putting together", "composition") is a process that converts carbon dioxide into organic compounds , especially sugars , using the energy from sunlight http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photosynthesis
