| Next, the plant gets carbon dioxide from the air and that passes through the stroma. | |
 | |  |
|
 |
| | |
| But dont they need energy to do this? | |
| | |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| | |
| Yes, it gets energy from the sun. The oxygen is released into the air and the hydrogen is then used to make ATP and NADPH. | |
| | |
|
|
| | |
| So when does it make proteins? | |
| | |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| | |
| Well its when the hydrogen atoms from NADPH are combined with carbon dioxide to produce glucose. | |
| | |
|
|
| | |
| Wait. So what's the point of the process of photosynthesis? | |
