are mostly parasites and also symbionts. Mushrooms‚ mold and mildew are all examples of organisms in the kingdom fungi. The kingdom of the plants is the second largest kingdom. The plants are very complex multicellular organisms. They contain chlorophyll‚ which helps them prepare their own food by the process of photosynthesis in which plants convert energy from sunlight into food. This kingdom includes all types of plants like herbs‚ shrubs‚ trees‚ flowering and non flowering plants. The biggest

and acting much like lysosomes in animal cells. They regulate the pressure in the cell and collect water to keep the plant from wilting. Chloroplasts are specialized organelles fond in all higher plan cells. Those organelles contain the plants chlorophyll which is responsible for the plant green color. The cytosol is the soup like liquid that all other organelles reside in and where most of the cellular metabolism occurs. Lastly the cell

Plants release oxygen into the atmosphere as a by-product of photosynthesis b. Photosynthesis c. Definition- The process in which green plants use the energy from the sun to make carbohydrates from carbon dioxide and water in the presence of chlorophyll 5. Steps to the photonthesis a. Planets pull the carbon off the CO2 and use the carbon in glucose. The plants do not need the oxygen for this because they get it from the water. b. Plants release the oxygen (o2) back into the atmosphere. c.

The Calvin Cycle Plants use energy from the sun in tiny energy factories called chloroplasts. Using chlorophyll in the process of photosynthesis‚ they convert the sun’s energy into storable form in ordered sugar molecules such as glucose. In this way‚ carbon dioxide from the air and water from the soil in a more disordered state are combined to form the more ordered sugar molecules. Carbon dioxide is captured in a cycle of reactions known as the Calvin cycle or the Calvin-Benson cycle after

living conditions change to being unfavorable. Plants are dependent on photosynthesis for survival‚ to help them with the process of transpiration. Under a microscope we can see that plant cells have cell walls that are filled with chloroplast and chlorophyll‚ which is the method for gaining nutrients and performing transpiration. Plants are also identified by their ability to carry out alternation of generations‚ which means that plants are capable of performing both mitosis and meiosis in order to

Photosynthesis takes place in the leaves‚ where it uses carbon dioxide‚ water‚ chlorophyll and light energy to create food for the plants and oxygen for other living life forms. In fourth are the flowers; their purpose is all about reproduction‚ pollination‚ and seed development. Flowers contain both male and female parts: the carpel
