  2. Photosynthesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photosynthesis

    Schematic of photosynthesis in plants. The carbohydrates produced are stored in or used by the plant. Composite image showing the global distribution of photosynthesis, including both oceanic phytoplankton and terrestrial vegetation. Dark red and blue-green indicate regions of high photosynthetic activity in the ocean and on land, respectively.

  3. Potometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potometer

    A potometer' (from Greek ποτό = drunken, and μέτρο = measure), sometimes known as transpirometer, is a device used for measuring the rate of water uptake of a leafy shoot which is almost equal to the water lost through transpiration. The causes of water uptake are photosynthesis and transpiration. [1]

  4. Photosynthesis system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photosynthesis_System

    A photosynthesis system analysing the photosynthetic rate of a maize leaf. Photosynthesis systems are electronic scientific instruments designed for non-destructive measurement of photosynthetic rates in the field. Photosynthesis systems are commonly used in agronomic and environmental research, as well as studies of the global carbon cycle.

  5. Light-dependent reactions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Light-dependent_reactions

    In oxygenic photosynthesis, the first electron donor is water, creating oxygen (O 2) as a by-product. In anoxygenic photosynthesis , various electron donors are used. Cytochrome b 6 f and ATP synthase work together to produce ATP ( photophosphorylation ) in two distinct ways.

  6. Chloroplast - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chloroplast

    Water (H 2 O) and carbon dioxide (CO 2) are used in photosynthesis, and sugar and oxygen (O 2) are made, using light energy. Photosynthesis is divided into two stages—the light reactions, where water is split to produce oxygen, and the dark reactions, or Calvin cycle, which builds sugar molecules from

  7. Transpiration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transpiration

    When water uptake by the roots is less than the water lost to the atmosphere by evaporation, plants close small pores called stomata to decrease water loss, which slows down nutrient uptake and decreases CO 2 absorption from the atmosphere limiting metabolic processes, photosynthesis, and growth.

  8. Ecophysiology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ecophysiology

    Light is the food of plants, i.e. the form of energy that plants use to build themselves and reproduce. The organs harvesting light in plants are leaves and the process through which light is converted into biomass is photosynthesis. The response of photosynthesis to light is called light response curve of net photosynthesis . The shape is ...

  9. Photosynthetic pigment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photosynthetic_pigment

    Like plants, the cyanobacteria use water as an electron donor for photosynthesis and therefore liberate oxygen; they also use chlorophyll as a pigment.In addition, most cyanobacteria use phycobiliproteins, water-soluble pigments which occur in the cytoplasm of the chloroplast, to capture light energy and pass it on to the chlorophylls.
