1 Photosynthesis â The process of capturing light energy and converting it to sugar energy, in the presence of chlorophyll using carbon dioxide and water. 2  Respiration â The process of metabolizing (burning) sugars to yield energy for growth, reproduction, and other life processes.n photosynthesis, the plant uses water and nutrients from the soil, and carbon dioxide from the air with the sunâs energy to create photosynthates. Oxygen is releases as a byproduct. Figure 2.
Croquembouche. A croquembouche or croque-en-bouche is a French dessert consisting of choux pastry balls piled into a cone and bound with threads of caramel. In Italy and France, is often served at weddings, baptisms, and first communions.
The amuse-bouche emerged as an identifiable course during the Nouvelle Cuisine movement, which emphasized smaller, more intensely flavored courses. It differs from other hors d'Åuvres in that it is small, usually just one or two bites, and preselected by the chef and offered free of charge to all present at the table.
