Photosynthesis
examines how plants convert light energy into chemical energy. A detailed
yet easy-to-understand method of presentation that uses animations
extensively, takes students through the more difficult aspects of
photosynthesis. Topics include: the roles of carbon dioxide, water,
oxygen, glucose, and light energy; waves, wavelengths, and the visible
light spectrum; photons; pigments including chlorophyll a, chlorophyll b
and the carotenoids; chloroplasts; the chemical reaction for
photosynthesis; light reactions including detailed examination of
photosystems I and II, electron transport chains, and the generation of
ATP and NADPH; dark reactions; and the Calvin Cycle.Information is
presented in a logical step-by-step manner while animations show
photosystems and other essential processes in action. Dynamic tutorials
reinforce concepts shown in the presentation. Photosynthesis
belongs in every school's biology CD-ROM collection.
