English Test 1 - Explanation Text

Plants use energy from sunlight to make sugars in a process called photosynthesis. Inside the tightly packed palisade cells in the leaves of a plant are structures called chloroplasts in which photosynthesis takes place. Chloroplasts contain a green pigment called chlorophyll. Chlorophyll traps the Sun's energy, which the plant uses to make molecules of glucose from water and carbon dioxide. Oxygen is released as a by-product. The glucose provides energy for the plant.

Where does photosynthesis take place?

Plants use energy from sunlight to make sugars in a process called photosynthesis. Inside the tightly packed palisade cells in the leaves of a plant are structures called chloroplasts in which photosynthesis takes place. Chloroplasts contain a green pigment called chlorophyll.
