Photosynthesis Greenhouse

Plants use light energy to rearrange atoms from water and CO₂ into sugar and oxygen; atoms regroup rather than appearing, and the scarcest required input limits production.

What your child will figure out

  • Identify where water, carbon dioxide, and light enter the process.
  • Rearrange the same visible C, H, and O atoms from water and carbon dioxide into sugar building units and oxygen pairs.
  • Predict and observe how the least available required input limits sugar and oxygen production.
  • Transfer the atoms-plus-energy model to no-light scenarios and endless generated greenhouse jobs.

The levels

  1. Gather the ingredients

    Locate the entry routes for water, carbon dioxide, and light energy.

  2. Build with atoms

    Regroup all 12 input atoms into two sugar building units and two oxygen pairs.

  3. Find the bottleneck

    Predict and test how lowering one required input changes production.

  4. Night shift transfer

    Apply the atoms-plus-energy model to a plant with water and carbon dioxide but no light.
