Chapter 7.1, Problem 1CYL

Summary Introduction

To explain:

The process photosynthesis is important.

Introduction:

Photosynthesis is defined as process of production of food by plants. Plants synthesize their food in the presence of sunlight, air, water and carbon dioxide. The food is stored in leaves of plants.

Summary Introduction

To draw:

The structure of leaves and chloroplast and also explain its function in photosynthesis.

Introduction:

Chloroplast is type of cell organelle which is found in leaves of plants. It helps in photosynthesis by converting light energy into chemical energy to produce food for plants in the form of glucose which is stored in leaves of the plant in the form of sucrose.

Summary Introduction

To write: The basic equation of photosynthesis.

Introduction:

Photosynthesis is defined as process of production of food by plants. Chloroplast is the only cell organelle which is found in leaves of plants. The food is stored in leaves of plants.

Summary Introduction

To summarize: The main events of light reactions as well as Calvin cycle and also explain the relationship between two processes.

Introduction:

Light reaction of photosynthesis is a light-dependent reactions that uses light energy for the formation of ATP and NADPH. It occurs in thylakoid membrane of chloroplast. Calvin cycle involves a set of chemical reactions that occurs in chloroplasts during photosynthesis.
