Photosynthesis
What kind of energy is necessary for photosynthesis to occur?
Sunlight
What kind of energy is made in cellular respiration?
ATP
What does the epidermis layer do?
Provide protection and keep moisture in the leaf
What type of cells go through mitosis?
Eukaryotic cells
What is the waxy covering on the surface of a leaf?
Cuticle
What are the products of photosynthesis?
Oxygen and glucose
What are the products of cellular respiration?
Carbon Dioxide, Water, and ATP
What does the stomata do?
Lets CO2 into the leaf and O2 out of it
Which phase do cells spend most of their time in (about 90%)?
Interphase
What holds two chromatids together to make a chromosome?
Centromere
What are the reactants in photosynthesis?
Water, Carbon Dioxide, and sunlight
What are the reactants in cellular respiration?
Oxygen and Glucose
What are the two parts in the vascular tube (stem)?
Xylem and Phloem
Explain what happens in the phase TELOPHASE
A nucleus forms around each set of chromatids that have now split away from each other
What phase happens after prophase?
What happens during it?
Metaphase
Chromosomes line up in the middle of the cell
What organelle does photosynthesis take place in?
Chloroplast
What organelle does cellular respiration take place in?
Mitochondria
What two layers in the leaf have mesophyll cells?
Palisade and Spongy
What two structures are in charge of actually pulling chromosomes apart during mitosis?
Centrioles and Spindle Fibers
What pigment is responsible for making plants green?
Chlorophyll
Do plants go through photosynthesis AND cellular respiration? EXPLAIN
YES
1. They have both organelles
2. Photosynthesis during the day, cellular respiration at night
3. Photosynthesis makes the food (glucose) but cellular respiration turns that into energy
What does ATP stand for?
Adenosine Triphosphate
What is the difference between the palisade and the spongy layers?
Palisade layer is where sunlight enters
Spongy layers is where water enters
Name EVERY phase in the cell cycle in order
Interphase, Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, Telophase, Cytokenesis
Explain how photosynthesis and cellular respiration create a cycle
The reactants of one are the products of another
What is produced in photosynthesis is needed for cellular respiration to start (and vice versa)
