Photosynthesis and the Teeny Tiny Pigment Pancakes
No, the Calvin cycle isn't the bicycle Calvin and Hobbes ride. A video describes photosynthesis through cartoon graphics. Using the chemical formula and two reactions, it stresses the importance of chlorophyll and ATP.
Bozeman Science
Photosynthesis
A scientific video describes photosynthesis in both plants and algae through the use of chloroplasts. It also explains the various pigments and types of chlorophyll, light reactions, and the Calvin cycle.
Curated OER
Photosynthesis: Trapping the Sun's Energy
In this photosynthesis worksheet, students learn how plants trap the sun's energy and the light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis which includes the Calvin cycle. This worksheet has 5 true or false, 6 fill in the blank, 2 short...
