Document Summary

Consumers (heterotrophs): get their food from outside of body. Photosynthesis is needed in our life, plants need it for food, animals need plants for food. Bacteria and eukaryotes carry photosynthesis but archaea cannot. Eukaryotes form symbiotic (living together) relationships with photosynthetic organisms. List the three simple ingredients needed for photosynthesis. Emits a spectrum of wavelengths: release energy thru wavelength, short wavelengths- high energy, long wavelengths- low energy, only some energy waves reach. Earth, rest shown thru color, it is visible. Photosynthetic pigments catch sunlight: pigments specialize in absorbing different wavelengths, chlorophyll a- primary pigments, absorbs blue, violet, orange, red. Photosynthesis in chloroplasts: no pigment absorbs green light, light is reflected making leaves look green. Gas change occurs in leaf pores called stomata. Each leaf contains mesophyll cells that contain chloroplasts. Each chloroplast has several gana (stacks of thylakoids: pigments in thylakoids capture sunlight. Photosystem a large protein in thylakoid membrane.
