IB Biology C1.3.1 Light energy → chemical energy
Practise explaining how chlorophyll in chloroplasts absorbs light so leaf cells can use photosynthesis to make carbon compounds from water and CO2.
How this is tested
- explain how light absorbed by chlorophyll is used in photosynthesis
- link chloroplasts and chlorophyll to the production of carbon compounds in leaf cells
- describe how water, CO2 and light are involved when plants make sugars
