The Effects of Photosynthesis on Plant Growth
Young scholars are able to draw a diagram of the light reactions and briefly describe what is occurring throughout the process. They are able to explain where each reactant/product in the photosynthesis equation comes from/goes during...
Curated OER
The Effects of Photosynthesis on Plant Growth
Learners examine the process of photosynthesis; its products and reactants, and the sequence of the process. They diagram the light reactions, record observations of plants, and discuss how difficult it is to measure plant growth as it...
Curated OER
Photosynthesis, Respiration, and the ATP-ADP Cycle
Students explore the processes of photosynthesis and respiration. In this photosynthesis and respiration lesson plan, students learn about the role of the chloroplasts in photosynthesis and about the role of mitochondria in respiration...
Curated OER
Plant Structure, Function and Growth
Learners study three structures of a plant as well as their locations and functions. For this botany lesson students complete several activities on plant organs and their functions.
