the steps for photosynthesis

This week, I learned about the respiration system that takes place in a plant cell. An organelle called mitochondria is where the respiration takes place. It takes in C6 H12 O6 and O2 and gives out CO2 and energy. The energy that they give put comes from the sun. There was also something called fermantation. Fermantation is respiration without oxygen, and in that case, the body makes alcohol, and also lactic acid. When the body creates the acid, you get a cramp. I also learned about the steps of photosynthesis. An organelle called chloroplast is where photosynthesis takes place. Chloroplast has the green color that makes the whole plant green. The photosynthesis equation is CO2+H2O+ energy----------C6, H12, O6+O2.
