Photosynthesis, Plants, and Food Lab

Product Description

In the opening activity, student teams use LAB-AIDS® atom model to build carbon dioxide and water molecules, and then “react” them to form sugar and oxygen molecules. To reinforce and extend the concepts from the first activity, students then read about plants’ essential role as producers, using the process of photosynthesis to convert carbon dioxide, water, and energy contained in light into energy stored in the bonds of sugar and other food molecules. Students are also introduced to chloroplasts. For 32 students. Grades 6-12.
