About this document
Plant Metabolism: Photosynthesis & More by John Cesar Castillo is a document available to read on EtoBox.
The document discusses several key metabolic processes in plants: photosynthesis, respiration, and nitrogen fixation. Photosynthesis converts light energy, carbon dioxide, and water into glucose and oxygen in the leaves and stems. Respiration is the opposite process, using glucose to produce carbon dioxide and water. Nitrogen fixation occurs through bacteria in legume root nodules, converting nitrogen in the atmosphere into ammonia that plants can use.
