Below each process name write WHERE it occurs. Make arrows going in and out of each box. Write IN and OUT on top of the page above the arrows. Each box represent multi-step processes. You are focusing on the INPUTs and OUTPUTs. A. First focus on the flow of ENERGY. For each box write the INPUT and OUTPUT – the molecule(s) or form that contain the energy. Indicate if it is kinetic or potential energy. B. Next, in a different color of ink (or highlighter) focus on the flow of ELECTRONS. For each box write the molecule(s) that carry the electrons IN and OUT. C. And finally, in a third color of ink (or highlighter) focus on the flow of CARBON. For each box write what molecule (if any) carries the carbon IN and OUT.arrow_forwardCompare and contrast the two phases of photosynthesis: the light reactions and the Calvin cycle.
