Lesson on 30th August 2010

Headline- Making food using sunlight, carbon dioxide and water. Is that possible?

In fact, plants can make food with just sunlight, carbon dioxide and water. Green leaves of plants contains a green pigment called chlorophyll. This chlorophyll will then trap sunlight. Water will be absorbed through the roots, and carbon dioxide will be absorbed through tiny pores, mostly found on the underside of the leaves, called stomata. With all of these 3 products, the plants will then be able to photosynthesize and produce glucose.
