Photosynthesis in nature• Autotrophs:biotic

producers; photoautotrophs; chemoautotrophs; obtains organic food without eating other organisms

• Heterotrophs: biotic

consumers; obtains organic food by eating other organisms or their by-products (includes decomposers)

Warm-Up

• What are the two parts of photosynthesis? (Look in your book, pg. 93)

• What are the reactants?• What are the products?• How are the products of

photosynthesis important to us?

The chloroplast• Sites of

photosynthesis• Pigment: chlorophyll• Plant cell: mesophyll• Gas exchange:

stomata• Double membrane• Thylakoids, grana,

stroma

Photosynthesis

• A complex process in which visible sunlight is converted into chemical energy in carbohydrate molecules.

• Occurs within the chloroplasts of cells

Photosynthesis

Light Reaction • Occurs within the

thylakoid membrane inside of the chloroplasts

Light Independent

Reaction (Dark Reaction)

• Occurs within the Stroma
