Travel to a garden and explore the amazing process of photosynthesis taking place in the green leaves of this giant plant! See where the plant absorbs water through its roots, takes in air through its leaves, and then uses the energy from sunlight to transform these ingredients into a new, complex molecule, glucose for the plant to store and use as food when needed. This incredible transformation means that plants are 'producers', creating their own food, and they are the basis of most food chains on Earth. As you climb the stalk of the sunflower, the first leaf you visit will give a simple overview of photosynthesis, the next leaf shows in detail the molecules involved, and finally the highest leaf hints at the complex structures inside the leaf where photosynthesis takes place.

Magnetism is a natural force which can act over a distance, pulling certain objects closer to each other and sticking them together. Magnets can be naturally occurring; Planet Earth acts as a giant magnet, and this is why a compass will always point to North. Magnets can also be made and controlled. Powerful electromagnets can pick up heavy objects, and they can be controlled at the flick of a switch. As many materials are non-magnetic, and so unaffected by the force of a magnetic field, magnets can be very useful for sorting materials.
