TOPIC: PHOTOSYNTHESIS
A graphic organizer is a visual and graphic display that depicts the relationships
between facts, terms, and or ideas within a learning task. It is also known as a
knowledge map, concept map, story map, cognitive organizer, advance organizer, or
concept diagram.
TASK: Write the summary reaction for photosynthesis. Then make a graphic organizer
around this equation to show the origin of each of the components of the reaction, the
role of each component in the light-dependent and\/ or light-independent reactions, and
the relationship among the components of the reaction.
.
INSTRUCTIONS:
The graphic organizer should include the required components and images that represent
Photosynthesis.
The graphic organizer should be informative, creative, colourful and attractive. \u00c3\u00a2\u00cb\u2020\u00e2\u201e\u00a2 The

books, journals, lesson notes and other online resources to understand the concept
more clearly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Correct Answer and Explanation is :<\/strong><\/mark><\/p>\n\n\n\n Photosynthesis is the process by which green plants, algae, and some bacteria convert light energy into chemical energy stored in glucose. This process primarily occurs in the chloroplasts of plant cells and involves two major stages: the light-dependent reactions and the light-independent reactions (also known as the Calvin cycle).<\/p>\n\n\n\n The overall equation for photosynthesis is:<\/p>\n\n\n\n 6CO\u2082 + 6H\u2082O + light energy \u2192 C\u2086H\u2081\u2082O\u2086 + 6O\u2082<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n This equation represents how plants take in carbon dioxide (CO\u2082) from the air, water (H\u2082O) from the soil, and light energy from the sun to produce glucose (C\u2086H\u2081\u2082O\u2086) and release oxygen (O\u2082).<\/p>\n\n\n\n These occur in the thylakoid membranes of the chloroplasts. During this stage, light energy is absorbed by chlorophyll and other pigments. The energy is used to split water molecules (photolysis), releasing oxygen, electrons, and protons. The electrons are transferred through the electron transport chain, generating ATP and NADPH, which are crucial for the next stage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This stage occurs in the stroma of the chloroplasts. ATP and NADPH produced in the light-dependent reactions are used to convert carbon dioxide into glucose through a series of enzyme-driven steps. The Calvin cycle involves the fixation of carbon atoms into an organic molecule, which is then converted into glucose, a form of stored chemical energy that the plant can use for growth and reproduction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The graphic organizer will visually depict the components of photosynthesis and their relationships within the light-dependent and light-independent reactions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This organizer will be filled with vibrant colors, clear labeling, and simple diagrams to enhance understanding and retainability. The visual format will link the various components together in a clear, organized way.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" TOPIC: PHOTOSYNTHESISA graphic organizer is a visual and graphic display that depicts the relationshipsbetween facts, terms, and or ideas within a learning task.
