Photosynthesis:
Life from Light and Air
Regents Biology
Plants are energy producers
 Like animals, plants need energy to live

unlike animals, plants don’t need to eat
food to make that energy
 Plants make both FOOD & ENERGY
animals are consumers
 plants are producers

Regents Biology
How do plants make energy & food?
 Plants use the energy from the sun
to make ATP (energy)
 to make sugars

 glucose, sucrose, cellulose, starch, & more
sun
ATP
sugars
Regents Biology
Building plants from sunlight & air
 Photosynthesis
2 separate processes
 ENERGY building reactions
 LIGHT DEPENDENT RXN

sun
 collect sun energy
 use it to make ATP (chemical
ATP
energy)
SUGAR building reactions
H2O
 LIGHT INDEPENDENT RXN

 take the ATP energy
 collect CO2 from air &
H2O from ground
 use all to build sugars
Regents Biology

sugars
Using light & air to grow plants
 Photosynthesis
using sun’s energy to make ATP
 using CO2 & water to make sugar
 in chloroplasts (leaf)
 allows plants to grow
 makes a waste product

 oxygen (O2)
Regents Biology
What do plants need to grow?
 The “factory” for making
energy & sugars

Photosynthesis
 Light reactions
light-dependent reactions
 ENERGY conversion reactions

 convert solar energy to chemical energy
 ATP & NADPH (products – will move into the calvin
cycle)
 Calvin cycle
light-independent reactions
 SUGAR building reactions

 uses chemical energy (ATP & NADPH) to reduce CO2

O2
 produces ATP
 produces NADPH
 releases O2 as a
waste product
