Photosynthesis 1
The process that uses energy from the sun to make food from water and carbon dioxide.
What is photosynthesis?
A food molecule made from carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen that humans eat, from foods like pasta, bread, and candy.
What is a carbohydrate?
Things that eat their food for energy.
heterotrophs
guard cells have a nucleus (true or false)
true
Right side (after the arrow) in a chemical equation.
What is products?
The structure of the plant that has the stomata and plant cells that produce sugar.
What are leaves?
Photosynthesis uses light energy, carbon dioxide, and ______ to produce oxygen and sugar.
What is water?
When the sun shines on a plant, the leaves can make food from carbon dioxide and ________.
What is water?
Name two food molecules that make up CHO and CHO
lipids or carbs
what does the xylem in plants do?
take up water
The tiny pores in the bottom of leaves that take in carbon dioxide from the air.
What are stomata?
This food molecule helps with building and repair.
What are proteins
Photosynthesis takes place in this plant cell organelle.
What are chloroplasts?
photosynthesis turns light energy into ___________.
What is chemical energy?
what is the tube found in plants that carries food in both directions?
Phloem
What does the arrow mean in a chemical equation
Turns into
Cellular respiration occurs in this cell part.
What is mitochondria?
What are the products of photosynthesis?
glucose and oxygen
this is the green pigment found in chloroplasts that make leaves green.
chlorophyll
the pores on the underneath side of the plant cell that open during photosynthesis to move gases in and out
stomata
Location in the plant where water gets separated into Hydrogen and Oxygen, and red and blue light are absorbed.
What are cholorplasts?
Besides water and carbon dioxide what is necessary for photosynthesis to occur?
Light energy or the suns light
What are the reactants of cellular respiration
glucose and oxygen.
The chemical equation for photosynthesis
6co2 + 6h2o turns into c6h12o6 + 6o2
what are the cells called that open and close the stomata
guard cells
