PhotosynthesisVersión en línea Photosynthesis por mario tarache cabarte 1 Introduction Let's look at everything related to photosynthesis, its explanation, and fundamental characteristics using a CLIL approach. We'll start with a question and key concepts. 2 Where does it occur? Photosynthesis happens in leaves. Plant leaves carry out this process under daylight. 3 Step 1: sunlight Sunlight is the energy that enters. The leaves capture it with chlorophyll, which gives them their green color. 4 Step 2: Water Water comes from the roots and rises through the plant to fuel the chemical reactions. 5 Step 3: CO2 CO2 from the air enters through the leaves and is used in food production. 6 Chlorophyll and energy Chlorophyll makes it green and captures light, facilitating the conversion of energy into sugars. 7 Glucose La glucosa es el azúcar que la planta fabrica para crecer y almacenar energía. 8 Oxygen As a byproduct, oxygen is released into the atmosphere through the leaves. 9 Class dynamics We use cards with keywords: sunlight, glucose, oxygen, roots, leaves to activate prior knowledge. 10 Activation Question: What do plants need to make food?Answer with first… then… finally to describe the process.For example: First, plants absorb water and carbon dioxide with the help of sunlight captured by chlorophyll; then, they transform these elements into energy through chemical reactions that release oxygen; finally, they produce glucose as their main food.
