Across
- 3. An organelle within the cells of plants that absorbs sunlight and is the site of photosynthesis.
- 5. Any of the microscopic pores in the epidermis of the leaf or stem of a plant which takes in carbon dioxide for photosynthesis.
- 6. A colorless, odorless gas which is the product of photosynthesis and is inhaled by animals.
- 9. A non-structural carbohydrate used to store energy which is made from one of the products of photosynthesis glucose and serves as a reserve food supply for plants.
- 11. The process by which plants use sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide to create oxygen and energy in the form of sugar.
Down
- 1. The separation of molecules caused by light splits the hydrogen and oxygen atoms in water for photosynthesis.
- 2. A transparent liquid without a smell with the chemical formula H2O taken in through the root of a plant used to produce oxygen and glucose in the process of photosynthesis.
- 4. Part of a plant that's usually green and attached to it by a stem or stalk which take in light for photosynthesis.
- 7. A main type of sugar in plants used for energy and is a product of photosynthesis.
- 8. Gas produced by burning carbon and organic material and by respiration which is taken in by plants and is a reactant in the process of photosynthesis.
- 10. A pigment present in all green plants found in chloroplast which stored energy is used to convert carbon dioxide and water to glucose and oxygen in the process of photosynthesis.
