- Most of the carbon that land plants use for photosynthesis comes from ______. a. glucose b. the atmosphere c. water d. soilarrow_forwardPhotosynthesis occurs in the chloroplasts packed within the mesophyll cells. Summer leaves are green because they contain about 50 times more chlorophyll than carotenoids. But during the fall, carotenoids have their season of glory because chlorophyll breaks down first, revealing the striking orange and yellow colors of carotenoids, which were there all along. The changes that leaves undergo before they fall off allow the plant to reclaim nutrients from the leaves for storage and use the following spring. How do these nutrients leave the leaf ?arrow_forwardJaden grows geraniums in his greenhouse. He has noticed that his flowers are not growing very well. The greenhouse is in the shade for much of the day and maintains a temperature of 23°C (74°F). What might be the problem and how could Jaden do to fix it?arrow_forward
