0 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:04,000 Hi guys, today we will be talking about plants. 1 00:00:04,000 --> 00:00:13,000 In this case, we will focus on nutrition and respiration, what they eat and how they breathe. 2 00:00:13,000 --> 00:00:17,000 We will start with nutrition. 3 00:00:17,000 --> 00:00:23,000 Remember that the name of this process, the name of the process that plants do to make 4 00:00:23,000 --> 00:00:27,000 their own food is photosynthesis. 5 00:00:27,000 --> 00:00:33,000 It takes place mainly in the leaves. 6 00:00:33,000 --> 00:00:38,000 Water is absorbed by the roots. 7 00:00:38,000 --> 00:00:44,000 The water comes from the ground. 8 00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:55,000 The chlorophyll, which is in the leaves, absorbs sunlight and this is why leaves are green. 9 00:00:55,000 --> 00:01:07,000 Leaves also absorb the carbon dioxide and the plants release oxygen. 10 00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:11,000 Let's see with a picture, you will see it much better. 11 00:01:11,000 --> 00:01:20,000 This is the leaves, the water that comes from the roots, as we said, the sunlight that is 12 00:01:20,000 --> 00:01:32,000 absorbed by the leaves, the carbon dioxide, which is absorbed by the leaves too, and the 13 00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:36,000 oxygen is released to the air. 14 00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:39,000 That is why plants are necessary. 15 00:01:39,000 --> 00:01:46,000 The name of the food, which is the result of photosynthesis, is glucose. 16 00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:49,000 Now let's continue with respiration. 17 00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:59,000 We need two things for respiration, oxygen and food energy, which is called glucose. 18 00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:05,000 This is what we will use, what plants will use for respiration. 19 00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:18,000 Carbon dioxide and water is released into the air during respiration. 20 00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:23,000 Let's see a picture, you will see it much better. 21 00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:30,000 This is the leaves, the plant, the glucose, the energy that they need. 22 00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:41,000 The oxygen is absorbed and the carbon dioxide is released, just like animals and human beings. 23 00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:45,000 Hope it is also useful for you guys, see you soon, bye bye!
