Plants are the basis for all life on Earth. They make…

• Sugars • Oxygen

Page 3: Chloroplasts The food producers of plant cells

Steps of Photosynthesis1. Sun’s energy hits a chloroplast.

Chloroplast = tiny structures in leaf cells

Page 4: Chloroplasts The food producers of plant cells

2. Chlorophyll (chemical inside chloroplasts) uses sun’s energy to…

Combine Carbon Dioxide and Water.

CO² + H²O

+
