Photosynthesis
By: Eric Serrano
How does water enter a plant and get to the leaves?
Water comes from the ground, into the roots, up the stem, and into the leaves.
Where does photosynthesis occur in the plant?
Photosynthesis occurs in the chloroplast of the plant cell. During this process, oxygen is created as a waste product and is released into the air for us to breathe.
Why is sunlight important to the process of photosynthesis?
Sunlight is the source of energy that is used to turn water and carbon dioxide with the help of chlorophyll to produce oxygen and glucose.
What is a waste product for the plant and how is it removed from the plant?
Oxygen is a waste product of plants and is released during photosynthesis.
