Autotrophic Nutrition :, , The organisms which carry out autotrophic nutrition are called autotrophs (green, plants), si 7 ; 7 Complex high, Autotrophs __Use_, Simple in it Convert, energy molecules, material into Carbohydrates, , Autotrophic nutrition is fulfilled by the process by which autotrophs take in CO, and, H,0 and convert these into carlohydrates in the presence of chlorophyll, sunlight is, called PHOTOSYNTHESIS, , Equation :, , 6CO, + 12H,0 Sunlight, ¢, 11,0, + 60,+ 61,0, Chlorophyle, , Raw Materials for Photosynthesis :, Sunlight, Chlorophyl — Sunlight absorbed by chlorophyll, , CO, — enters through Stomata, and Oxygen (O,) is released as by product, through stomata on leaf., Water — water + dissolved minerals like Nitrogen phosphorous etc are taken, up by the roots from the soil., , Site of Photosynthesis :, , Chloroplast in the leaf. Chloroplast contain chlorophyll. (green pigment), , Main Events of Photosynthesis :, Absorption of light energy by chlorophyll, Conversion of light energy into chemical energy + splitting (breaking) of water, into hydrogen and oxygen., Reduction of CO, to carbohydrates.
