H 2 O Carbon Dioxide
546 wordsPhotosynthesis Photosynthesis means putting together with light. This takes place in chloroplasts, which have chlorophyll in them. Chlorophyll absorbs the sunlight. From sunlight, green plants combine carbon dioxide and water to make sugar and oxygen. Green plants use sugar to make starch, fats and proteins. These are tiny pores called stomata. Stomata are plant spores, which enable gas exchanges to take, place, and water to vapor to be lost. This has the benefit of moving water up the plane in ...
