Lyrics:
Photosynthesis is a process
For plants to make our own food
Out of water and CO2
We use the energy we get from the sunlight
To make us photosynthesize
And in the end, photosynthesis helps our human friends
‘Cause we release the oxygen you breathe
In photosynthesis
Plant:
I have roots that reach down in the ground
And take in all the water they can find
I have leaves that take in CO2
Also known as carbon dioxide
And with the sunlight’s energy I take those two
And make a sugar called glucose, and that’s my food
And it helps me grow tall
But that’s not all, I make oxygen too
Leaf:
Hey, let’s talk about me for a minute
It wouldn’t be photosynthesis without leaves in it
I have stomata, these are my gorgeous pores
For the CO2 and oxygen, of course
And I get my green color so naturally
It’s chlorophyll, it absorbs the sun’s energy
And I keep it in my chloroplasts
You know that’s where the party’s at
In photosynthesis
Photosynthesis is a process
For plants to make our own food
Out of water and CO2
We use the energy we get from the sunlight
To make us photosynthesize
And in the end, photosynthesis helps our human friends
‘Cause we release the oxygen you breathe
In photosynthesis
