Photosynthesis
Process by which green plants use light energy to synthesis glucose from water and carbon dioxide.
Oxygen is used as a bi-product
Carbon Dioxide
A reactant in photosynthesis which diffuses into the leaf via stomata
Water
A reactant in photosynthesis which travels to the leaf via xylem from the roots
Glucose
Product formed in photosynthesis.
Used for respiration and to make other molecules needed by the plant.
Oxygen
A waste product of photosynthesis
Used for respiration in all living cells
