What are Photosynthetic Organisms and how do they use energy?

Photosynthesis

Photosynthesis is a process used by plants and other organisms to convert light energy into chemical energy or glucose.

Cellular Respiration

Process in which biochemical energy into ATP and then releasing by-product.

Glucose

Glucose is the chemical energy created after photosynthesis.

Law of conservation of matter

Mass can neither be created nor destroyed in a chemical reaction.

ATP

ATP is able to store and transport chemical energy within cells.

Oxygen

Oxygen is a gas element required for animal life.

Carbon Dioxide

Carbon dioxide is a gas with the chemical formula c02, two parts oxygen and one part carbon.

Hydrogen

Hydrogen is a highly flammable gas element with atomic number 1

Reactants in chemical reaction

Reactants in a chemical reaction are the variables combined to form the chemical reaction.

Products in chemical reaction

The product is what is made after the chemical reaction.

Chlorophyll

Chlorophyll is a plant's green pigment.

Chloroplast

An organelle that contains chlorophyll and in which photosynthesis takes place.
