Building Leaves and an Understanding of Photosynthesis
Littlejohn, Patty
Science Scope, v8 n30 p22-25 Apr 2007
Where does cellular respiration take place? How does a plant make food and in turn use the food to produce its own energy? Do animals carry on this process also? To help students answer these and other questions, have them build a model leaf, plant cell, and animal cell. This hands-on project allows students to see and manipulate the reactants and products of photosynthesis and cellular respiration. (Contains 3 figures.)
