This week in Science we learned all about photosynthesis, respiration, and fermentation. Photosynthesis is the process of plants converting light, CO2, and H2O to make food(glucose) and oxygen. We learned about this by making flow charts and having class discussions and using legos to help us. Respiration is the process of plants using food and oxygen to make food(glucose) and energy. We also learned about this by making flow charts, having class discussions, and using legos to help us. Fermentation is Anaerobic Respiration, or respiration without oxygen. We learned about this by conducting an experiment and realizing that the experiment we did dealt with fermentation. Knowing about these things are important because it's helpful to know about what goes on inside of plants.
We also discussed in class weather or not we can live without plants. We cannot live without plants because they are a vital part of our survival because they ultimately provide us with Air(O2) and food(glucose). This is an important concept to understand because we should know what's vital to our survival.
