Another day at science





HW- u.p. pages 73-76
and continue the
plant project.

-today in class we reviewed the homework from a few days ago, which was pages 81-85.
-We reviewed all the things we previously knew about photosynthesis and the structure of a chloroplast
-In photosynthesis there is a light dependent and light independent cycle
the light dependent cycle takes in sunlight and water.
When the water is split to form ATP oxygen is released.
-Once enough ATP and NADPH are created they go on to the light independent cycle, or the calvin cycle. In this cycle the energy from the ATP and NADPH is released and combine with other things, like carbon dioxide, to form glucose.
