Stomata
Small openings on the underside of a leaf that allow gases like CO2 to enter and O2 to leave.
Mitochondria
Organelles in cells responsible for producing ATP, the energy currency of the cell.
Photosynthesis
The process by which plants convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen using sunlight.
Chemical Equation of Photosynthesis
6CO2 + 6H2O -> C6H12O6 + 6O2, representing the conversion of carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen.
ATP (Adenosine Triphosphate)
The primary energy carrier in all living organisms.
Nature of science
A scientific process characterized by the investigation of natural phenomena through observation and experimentation.
Water (H2O)
A key reactant in photosynthesis, which, along with CO2, is transformed into glucose and oxygen.
Carbon Dioxide (CO2)
A gas that enters the leaf through stomata and is used in the photosynthesis process.
Oxygen (O2)
A gas emitted as a byproduct of photosynthesis, released through the stomata.
