Hank explains in-depth the series of reactions that take place for a plant to produce food for itself, also known as photosynthesis. This video also explores the prerequisites (sunlight, carbon dioxide, and water) of these reactions. Key Words: Xylem, Stomata, Chlorophyll, Chloroplast, Thylakoid, Photoexcitation, Photosystem II, Electron Transport Chain, Cytochrome Complex, ATP 
By observing the chloroplasts in a leaf, the students learn that plants produce their own food and do not get it from another source. The students come to the conclusion that the chloroplasts use sunlight, air, and water to create sugar, which is used as energy for the plant.
Beakman explains how leaves lose chlorophyll using a cartoon video. Then he explains the role of chlorophlyll in photosynthesis verbally. To further demonstrate, Beakman acts like the "chef" chlorophyll that provides food for the plant.
Beakman explains germination as an overview with a short video clip. Then explains the durability and uniqueness of different kinds of seeds. Using an animated clip, he explains how birds help spread seeds. They then perform a demo showing how plants always grow toward light.
