Photosynthesis
Tuesday, September 28, 2010. Today we modeled the chemical process of Photosynthesis; the foundation of almost all life on the planet. We used different colored Starburst candies for the atoms of Hydrogen, Carbon, and Oxygen and toothpicks to represent the chemical bonds holding the molecules together. Following the rules of bonds for Carbon, two bonds for Carbon, and one bond for Hydrogen, we built six Carbon dioxide molecules and six Water molecules. Then we reassembled them into a Glucose molecule along with six Oxygen molecules. No Homework this week.
