Biomass and the sun
(4) Process
Biomass production is:- no diversity- high input- high output
- high risks
Page 26
(5) Process- mobile home- good architecture- resourcemanagement by walking around

Leaves of plants maximize exposure to sun to maximize photosynthesis by moving throughout the day.
Leaves remove pollution

(5) ENERGY
Page 29
Photosynthesis in plants creates energy from sunlight
they absorb almost 100% of the sunlight reaching them
