Photosynthesis


  • Photosynthesis occurs in plants.
  • The organelle it occurs in is the chloroplast.
  • The picture above has the equation for Photosynthesis in word form.
  • Balance Equation = 6CO2 + 6H2O + Sun --> C6H12O6 +6O2
  • Reactants - Carbon Dioxide (CO2), Water (H2O), and Sun
  • Products - Glucose (C6H12O6) and Oxygen (O2)
  • Glucose is the primary product and Oxygen is the byproduct.

I already knew about the process of Photosynthesis but I did learn what the balanced equation is and the reactants and the products. I enjoyed learning about this objective because it is something that we have known for so long, we just went into further detail.
