The teaching and learning process is where possibilities arise for thinking about the
connection between applied content, its interdisciplinarity, such as photosynthesis and
mathematics and biology at school and beyond. Interdisciplinarity is a way of building
education that allows both students and teachers to build the world as it really is:
without separations, interconnected and integrated, with the potential for a better use
of teaching due to greater proximity between subjects. The problematizing question of
this study seeks to find ways to bring both subjects mentioned through photosynthesis:
How can mathematics contribute to science teaching in a reciprocal way? The
objective here is to list elements that enable the work between mathematics and
biology from textbooks in the field of biology. To carry out this study, the bibliographic
research method was used, which is the critical survey and analysis of material and
writing on the subject from material already produced, both in its processed state, such
as articles and textbooks, as well as raw material such documents. In the present work,
the bibliographical analysis starts from textbooks used in High School in the discipline
of biology: "Being a Protagonist" and "Biology Today", which allowed the identification
of concepts related to the phenomenon of photosynthesis that show themselves as
possibilities for the exchange of interdisciplinary knowledge between biology and
mathematics.
