Plants undergo two key processes - photosynthesis and respiration. During photosynthesis, plants use sunlight, carbon dioxide, and water to produce oxygen and energy in the form of sugars. This occurs through chloroplasts in the leaf cells. Respiration is the process by which plants convert the sugars from photosynthesis into energy. Leaves are adapted for photosynthesis, with structures like stomata and veins that allow for gas exchange and nutrient transport. Proper fertilizer provides plants the nutrients they need to grow and carry out these important functions.

Photosynthesis – a chemical reaction which happens in the 6 I can write the symbol equation for leaves of plants, to make food (sugars) with the help of photosynthesis. sunlight 6 I understand that photosynthesis is how plants Respiration – a chemical reaction which plants and animals increase their biomass. use to get energy from food (sugars) 5 I can write the word equation for photosynthesis. 5 I can describe how cells in the leaf are adapted Successes: for photosynthesis and cells in the root are adapted for taking in water. 1. _____________________ 5 I know the products in photosynthesis. _____________________ 5 I know the reactants in photosynthesis. 5 I can describe the function of chloroplasts, 2. _____________________ vacuole, and cell wall in plant cells. 5 I can describe ways that plants spread out _____________________ (disperse) their seeds.
