Slide 9: Write the definition for the following terms: sunlight, chloroplasts, chlorophyll, carbon dioxide, and glucose

• chlorophyll

• Product of photosynthesis.

• sunlight

• Only in plant cells.

• chloroplast

• Reactant of photosynthesis. Is absorbed through stomata in leaves.

• glucose

• Is the natural light emitted by the sun, crucial for photosynthesis, while chloroplasts are organelles in plant cells that conduct photosynthesis, converting sunlight into energy.
