Statement of Inquiry:-
Learning outcomes-
- Define photosynthesis as the fundamental process by which plants manufacture carbohydrates from raw materials using energy from light
- State the word equation for photosynthesis for the production of simple sugars and oxygen
- Investigate the necessity for chlorophyll, light and carbon dioxide for photosynthesis, using appropriate controls
- Describe the intake of carbon dioxide and water by plants
- Explain that chlorophyll traps light energy and converts it into chemical energy for the formation of carbohydrates and their subsequent storage
- State the balanced equation for photosynthesis in symbols [word equation and chemical equation]
- Investigate and state the effect of varying
- light intensity
- carbon dioxide concentration
- temperature on the rate of photosynthesis
- Identify and label the cuticle, cellular and tissue structure of a dicotyledonous leaf, as seen in cross-section under the light microscope, and describe the significance of these features in terms of functions to include:
- distribution of chloroplasts – photosynthesis
- stomata and mesophyll cells – gas exchange
- vascular bundles (xylem and phloem) - transport and support
- Describe the carbon cycle
- Deforestation- Causes and effects
