7. Start with a photon of sunlight and a carbon atom in a molecule of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere: model/diagram their pathway from that starting point to their final destination as a molecule of glucose that is used for energy in the cells of the plant stem. Following your diagram/model, provide a written explanation for what your diagram/model depicts. Make sure both your model and explanation are clear, concise, and have the appropriate level of detail to clearly demonstrate you understand photosynthesis, cellular respiration, and the movement of mass and energy in plants.

Photosynthesis is defined as the chemical process, wherein carbon dioxide in the presence of water and radiant energy gets converted to glucose (chemical energy), giving out oxygen as byproducts. In the equation, the combining reactants and resulting products are expressed along with their respective numbers of molecules. Putting this in a simplified formula, the following equation represents this process. CO2 + H2O + Light energy → C6H12O6 + O2 Considering this equation, how plant lovers (plantitos and plantitas) able to cultivate their plants?
Discuss the advantages and disadvantages of a plant cell storing energy in each of the following molecules: ATP, NADPH, glucose, sucrose, starch.
1. Thinking about photosynthetic pigments, which statement is correct? A. The pigments found within most types of photosynthesizing cells are primarily chlorophylls and carotenoids. B.
